An innovative campaign for Christmas gifting with a difference
Dubai– This festive season, in line with the launch of the new global LUX* campaign Life Extraordinary, The Lux Collective presents the very first NFT (Non-Fungible Token) brand activation – LUX* Christmas Collectible Raffle. With innovation in its DNA, the Group aims to elevate the unique LUX* brand positioning globally across channels, now including the web3 platform (also known as Web 3.0 – a new iteration of the World Wide Web).
With the quest for bespoke travel experiences on the rise, LUX* invites consumers to gift their loved ones a LUX* Christmas Collectible. 1000 collectibles are now on Sale from 11 December 2022 till Christmas Day 25 December 2022.
Each of these collectibles includes a hotel stay and one of the four Extraordinary Experiences exclusively designed for this Christmas Raffle: a private whale shark dhoni boat trip with a marine biologist at LUX* South Ari Atoll in the Maldives, an infinity pool rooftop breakfast and massage private experience at LUX* Grand Baie in Mauritius, a traditional pirogue boating experience at LUX* Grand Gaube in the northern lagoon of Mauritius or an encounter with wild dolphins at LUX* Le Morne in Mauritius. Attractively priced at USD1000, each collectible will stand the chance to win and enjoy up to two nights for Standard Collectibles or five nights for Silver and Golden Collectibles. Once the collectible is purchased, it will reveal itself on Christmas Day. Through a uniquely immersive metaverse-inspired experience, the owner of the raffle token will discover the hotel and destination.
“LUX* is designed on the promise of a different kind of luxury – to excite and delight. At LUX*, time is luxury. Moving in tandem with digital-forward trends and lifestyle, this innovative campaign allows us to reach savvy luxury audience in the digital space. We have specially curated Extraordinary Experiences for this Christmas Collectible Raffle as we believe in gifting your loved one something meaningful this year – time in stunning locations to celebrate life,” said Ms Caroline Gaud-Perrier, Vice President Marketing of The Lux Collective.
“Community is at the heart of Metalyde, a studio specialised in designing interactive experiences that connects brands to the consumers. We fell in love with LUX* and its passion to celebrate life. Sharing this common vision, we have embarked on a collaboration to create Extraordinary Experiences through NFTs to transport travel-inspired consumers into the beautiful world of LUX* resorts,” said Mr Antoine Lepetitgaland, Chief Executive Officer of Metalyde.
It is all about gifting differently this year. Gift moments, not things. The LUX* Christmas Collectible Raffle with surprise gifts can be purchased via website.
Driving the digital transformation journey forward, The Lux Collective looks ahead with a customer-centric digital-first approach. Traversing offline and online, its flagship luxury brand LUX* will continue to transform the everyday into the extraordinary through beautifully designed spaces and crafted immersive experiences. With this first NFT kick-off, more exciting plans on web3 will be unveiled in 2023.
