XXXX – one of Australia’s favourite beers, and a 142-year-old Queensland icon, has thrown its weight behind Brisbane’s bid to host the 2032 Summer Olympic Games.
Patrick Donohue, XXXX Sales Director, welcomed the IOC’s announcement that Brisbane has received ‘preferred bid status’.
“The XXXX Brewery has proudly been making beer for Australians on Milton Road for more than 142 years – and in 2028 will celebrate its 150th birthday,” Donohue said.
“We have a long history of supporting the Sunshine State’s biggest sporting events, but the prospect of hosting the Olympic Games in Brisbane and putting everything that is great about Queensland on the world stage is nothing short of extraordinary.
“As Australians, we all remember the enormous excitement around the build up to the Sydney Olympics in 2000, and to be able to replicate and build on that feeling in Brisbane 32 years later will mean so much to so many.
“XXXX will be there every step of the way – and we hope to celebrate many more GOLD moments on the journey to 2032.”
END.
