Celebrate 150 years of Good Times with Heineken® — One Way or Another

From the new and improved Starclub experience @ Good Vibes Festival to exclusive Heineken® merchandise made in collaboration with local tastemakers; Malaysians are about to get a fresh taste of good times with Heineken®

KUALA LUMPUR, 6TH JUNE 2023 – Heineken® is celebrating its 150th anniversary, but forget the candles—Heineken® wants to honour how you celebrate good times. Heineken® is collaborating with local pop culture icons Good Vibes Festival, fashion label Motherchuckers and film lab Darkroom8 to blend global inspirations into local experiences to bring you extraordinary activations and limited-edition merchandise this year.

Freddy Heineken once said, “I don’t sell beer. I sell ‘gezelligheid’ or ‘Good Times’,” and that’s what Heineken® is still all about. With a global reach spanning over 190 countries, Heineken® has become a legend—transcending borders and connecting people through good times and their own unique ways of enjoying the brand, one way or another.

“In celebration of 150 years of good times with Heineken®, we are embracing all the different ways people around the globe enjoy our brand. Whether it’s drinking Heineken® over ice or unintentionally misspelling our brand’s name in the most creative of ways—Heineken® has become a global icon, bringing us all together one way or another,” said Willemijn Sneep, Marketing Director at HEINEKEN Malaysia.

Kicking off its series of good times collaborations, Heineken® is partnering with Good Vibes Festival for an exciting on-ground experience that promises to dial up the fun.

For the past 10 years, Heineken® has had a constant presence at Good Vibes Festival, a music festival synonymous with good times. Heineken® is excited to commemorate Good Vibes Festival’s 10th anniversary while celebrating its own 150th milestone.
