Corona has launched 'Living Is Calling,' a global summer campaign that extends its This Is Living platform through a Tripadvisor partnership featuring more than 300,000 travel experiences across 30-plus countries. The Corona Living Is Calling campaign allows eligible consumers to scan QR codes on Corona packaging to unlock access to travel vouchers tied to experiences ranging from coastal hikes in South Africa to snorkeling along the Amalfi Coast.
The campaign also includes a short film by Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam that follows seven friends through natural landscapes around the world using a first-person visual perspective, marking a first for the brand.
As beer brands vie for cultural relevance among consumers, Corona demonstrates that combining a brand philosophy with direct real-world experiences transforms a campaign tagline into something people can genuinely embody.
