BENGALURU: LaLiga, the Spanish top-tier football league, is celebrating ‘Five Years in India’ for the opening of the Indian office in 2017.
The milestone moment was marked with the first edition of ‘LaLiga Extra Time India’ and an upcoming fan screening for the Sevilla Derby, also known as the ‘El Gran Derbi’ (Sevilla FC v Real Betis) fixture.
The first edition of ‘LaLiga Extra Time India’ was held on 25th February and saw attendance from spokespeople from some of LaLiga’s key partners in the country – PUMA India, Hero Vired and Anantapur Sports Academy. The event involved a panel discussion on the work LaLiga does with its partners in the country, the impact of joint initiatives and plans for the coming years for this country.
The El Gran Derbi Watch Party, which will be held on 27th February, will be among the first public fan viewings LaLiga has held since the onset of the pandemic.
Organised keeping all safety protocols at the forefront, it will involve engagement activities like contests and games for the 100+ fans who earned their spot by participating in digital contests on LaLiga’s social media handles, also on LaLiga’s broadcaster MTV and Voot Select’s social media platforms. Along with these fans, LaLiga’s sponsors and key partners will also be a part of the watch party.
