Promotional Grass-Roots Effort During Group's 20-City National Tour

Starting June 25

Chivas Regal announced today its sponsorship of a 20-city national tour featuring Latin-Grammy-Award-winning "La Ley LEY. This word is old French, a corruption of loi, and signifies law; for example, Termes de la Ley, Terms of the Law. In another, and an old technical sense, ley signifies an oath, or the oath with compurgators; as, il tend sa ley aiu pleyntiffe. Brit. c. 27. ." As a tie-in with the tour, Chivas Regal will launch a major promotional grass-roots effort.

Chivas Regal USA National Brand Manager Saul Sola said at the time of the sponsorship announcement: "We are very pleased to be presenting this extremely popular group of gifted Rock en Espanol musicians as part of Chivas Regal's on-going commitment to showcasing the latest and best talents for U.S. Hispanic consumers. Since music is an international language, we are certain that, with this sponsorship, Chivas Regal will reach not only our Hispanic target but general audiences as well."

A pioneer in the sponsorship of Hispanic events, Chivas Regal leads the growing trend among major national brands seeking new Hispanic consumers through grass-roots marketing efforts. As the exclusive tour-presenting sponsor, Chivas Regal's presence at the tour will be extensive.

There will also be booths where consumers can sign up to enter a sweepstakes for T-shirts, caps and other Chivas Regal premium merchandise, with a guitar signed by "La Ley" band members as its grand prize. In addition, Chivas Regal will host Backstage and VIP parties to be held before and after each concert date. Media representatives will receive special, limited edition CDs with "La Ley's" best hits.
