“While football’s return will look different this season, Constellation Brands is excited about the long term investment we’re making in these markets by aligning with these franchises and can’t wait to greet fans with exciting brand experiences when it’s safe to do so,” says Rene Ramos, Vice President of Field, Lifestyle and Experiential Marketing at Constellation Brands. “These state-of-the-art stadiums provide an opportunity to showcase our portfolio of brands to deliver a next-level experience on gameday, and for other marquee events that will rotate through in the years to come.”

Corona, an official cerveza of the LA Rams, and Pacifico, an official beer of the LA Chargers, both have logo and marketing rights with the teams and the brand new SoFi Stadium, an unprecedented and unparalleled facility built by Rams Owner/Chairman E. Stanley Kroenke in Inglewood, Calif. SoFi Stadium will include the Corona Beach House, a three-level branded area featuring a grand circular staircase that offers top of the line hospitality to sports and music fans, and the Pacifico Patio on the north concourse that brings to life the unique ways football fans Live Life Anchors Up.

Modelo is an official cerveza of the inaugural season of the Las Vegas Raiders and the brand-new Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, NV, which includes logo and marketing rights. Allegiant Stadium will include various Modelo experiences, including the Modelo Cantina Club, a 26,000 square foot space overlooking the 50-yard line with three branded bars and the Modelo Tailgate Zone – a dedicated location outside of the stadium that will be home to Raider tailgates during the season. To commemorate the new season and the Raiders’ move to Vegas, Modelo Especial will offer a limited edition 24oz can, available for purchase in October at local retail locations.

Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi is the official wine of the Las Vegas Raiders, the latest sponsorship for the No. 3 Glass Wine Brand in the U.S. The partnership is inclusive of logos and marketing rights in market. In addition, Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi will connect with Raider Nation via high-impact co-branded displays, exciting consumer offers, targeted local advertising, and more.
