Winners of the Coca-Cola promotion departs to Paris

Winners of the promotion underway by Coca-Cola during Euro 2016 have departed for Paris, France on tonight to watch the historic football match between Wales and Northern Ireland.

The fixture scheduled for June 25, Saturday, is the second match of the second round.

Six lucky winners were provided the opportunity to travel to Paris with one companion each, as part of the Coca-Cola Euro 2016 promotion. Coca Cola said that there were total 17 people – 6 winners, 6 companions, 2 Coca Cola officials and 3 reporters in the team are heading to Paris.

Talking to Sun Media at Ibrahim Nasir International Airport (INIA), the General Manager of Coca Cola Maldives, Milind Derasari said that the group would be given a chance to visit different locations in Paris aside from the match.

He said that it is a trip with the help of Coca-Cola and today is the day the winners have been eagerly waiting for. The group is set to visit the Eiffel Tower and the Lourve Museem.

The group is set to spend seven days in Paris and the Coca-Cola Maldives GM said that the trip is more of a vacation for the winners rather than a visit to watch a live match.
