Pepsi® and UEFA are delighted to announce that legendary rock musician Lenny Kravitz will be the headline act at the UEFA Champions League Final Opening Show presented by Pepsi on June 1 at Wembley Stadium in London. This is the eighth year that Pepsi and UEFA will mark the final with the eagerly awaited opener, and the event promises to be an unforgettable experience minutes before the biggest final in the club soccer calendar.
The Grammy-winning artist, known for his dynamic stage presence and iconic hits, has been captivating audiences for decades with his genre-defying sound and magnetic stage presence. Kravitz, who recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, has been hard at work on his highly anticipated next album, Blue Electric Light, which is already generating anticipation among fans and critics ahead of its release on May 24, just one week before the UEFA Champions League Final Opening Show presented by Pepsi.
Para aumentar ainda mais a expectativa para a performance altamente aguardada, ainda hoje a Pepsi lançará um curta-metragem energético intitulado ?Wembley Is Blue | Lenny Kravitz x UCL Final Kick Off Show by Pepsi?. No filme, ouvimos os inconfundíveis ecos do hino da UEFA Champions League sendo assoviado enquanto Lenny Kravitz caminha lentamente por um túnel, pincel na mão, cobrindo as paredes de Azul Pepsi? antes de sair para o sagrado gramado do Estádio de Wembley. Vemos o astro do rock passar pela majestosa taça da UEFA Champions League, antes de pisar no gramado do estádio, quando a câmera de repente se afasta para revelar um mural azul de seu rosto cobrindo o campo e um estádio pulsante, preparando Londres para o show definitivo.
I’m really looking forward to my performance for the UEFA Champions League Final Kick Off Show presented by Pepsi in London, a city which holds a special place in my heart. It’s going to be such an exciting event ahead of a final that means so much to so many. We can’t wait to show you all what we have in store.
Once again, Pepsi and UEFA will mark the UEFA Champions League Final with a landmark musical performance, bringing together the world's most iconic artists and uniting soccer and music fans in an immersive entertainment spectacle. The UEFA Champions League Final Opening Show presented by Pepsi will be broadcast in more than 200 countries and territories globally, minutes before the highlight of the club soccer calendar and is the embodiment of the global platform ?Thirsty For More ? from Pepsi.
