Donat Rétif, CEO of the loveholidays Group, categorises the conclusion of the contract accordingly: “We are delighted to announce our new partnership with German champions Bayer 04 Leverkusen. As the club’s Official Holiday Partner, Werkself fans will benefit from special access to our great value package deals for away games during the upcoming Champions League season, as well as exclusive giveaways and digital content. Following a successful first year of business for weloveholidays in the German market and a Bundesliga win for Bayer 04 Leverkusen, our partnership marks the start of an exciting new chapter for both brands,” says Donat Retif, CEO of the loveholidays Group.
As a partner in the Sponsors Club and official Holiday Partner of Bayer 04 Leverkusen, weloveholidays will be visible on the LED advertising boards at the Werkself’s Bundesliga home games starting from the 2024/25 season. The Düsseldorf-based company will also receive ticketing services in the form of VIP and public tickets. The cooperation between Bayer 04 and weloveholidays is rounded off by digital advertising appearances, initially as part of the first team's upcoming training camp in Donaueschingen (28 July to 2 August) and an official friendly. In addition, digital presence in the context of away trips to UEFA Champions League matches is part of the contractual agreement.
