After a year filled with unexpected circumstances, Heineken® aims to connect Malaysians to end the year on a memorable note, while enjoying social experiences responsibly.

“With the pandemic throwing a curveball for year-end celebrations, we wanted to make sure that consumers and their loved ones are able to celebrate the usual festivities of ushering in the new year, with the same hype and festivities, in a safe way. To encourage connection in a year of distancing and to end the year on a memorable note, we invite our consumers to cheers with each other in an attempt to achieve the longest virtual cheers,”
said Pablo Chabot, Marketing Director of Heineken Malaysia Berhad.
By being a part of the longest virtual cheers, Malaysians also stand to get their hands on the limited edition Heineken® mini home bar.
