Burger King and Da Weasel: irreverence and Innovation Hand in Hand
Burger King’s objective is to be where its consumers are in their different consumption moments, including leisure moments associated with music consumption. The strategy for choosing the artist or band that the brand wanted to associate with was very thoughtful, as a musical project was sought that would match Burger King’s values and that had a strong connection with the Portuguese and with the history of music Portuguese.
“Da Weasel was our natural choice because they share much of what is also Burger King’s DNA: an irreverent, disruptive style and attitude, and a pioneering project in launching the hip hop style in Portugal. We at Burger King also identify with this innovative spirit, and we are pioneers in launching products, ingredients, and consumer trends” says António Marques, General Manager of Burger King for Portugal.
The return of Da Weasel in 2022 was one of the biggest musical successes of the year and as they celebrate 30 years of their career in 2023, Burger King wanted to honor them on this important date and bring together fans of the band and fans of the brand in an unprecedented celebration.
