Malibu has officially rolled out its newest marketing campaign called the 'Do Whatever Tastes Good' campaign, which invites consumers to "embrace the summer mindset" by indulging in their guilty pleasures, which includes enjoying a Malibu cocktail or two.
The new campaign is set to run throughout July and will include a variety of ads that will be launched across social channels and video-on-demand platforms. The ads themselves will highlight people enjoying Malibu in inclusive spaces, "where everyone is doing what they like."
In addition, the campaign will be combined with a unique in-person pop-up event called ''Malibu’s Courtside Confessions,' which will take place at Brixton Jamm from July 22 to 23. At the event, guests will be invited to confess "their guilty pleasures."
