Between May and September, Germany hosts its largest beach volleyball tournament series, known as the German Beach Tour. Following an action-packed four months of matches, the tour reaches its pinnacle with the prestigious German Championships held in Timmendorfer Strand.
Adding excitement to this summer’s tour is the inclusion of Discover Airlines as a new participant. The leisure airline joins as the official premium partner of the German Beach Tour, lending support to this beloved sport that captivates thousands of enthusiasts annually. In its capacity as the premium partner, Discover Airlines generously sponsors the prizes for all tournament award ceremonies. This marks the airline’s inaugural venture into the realm of sports sponsorship.
“Discover Airlines and beach volleyball simply go together. We not only share our passion for the beach and the sun, but also our enthusiasm for creating unforgettable memories in special places. As a young leisure airline, we are looking forward to supporting this popular sport and, in doing so, further increasing our brand awareness in Germany,” says Anne Platten, Head of Marketing at Discover Airlines . “We are also convinced that our route network offers some of the most beautiful beach volleyball courts in the world.”
“We are delighted that we were able to win Discover Airlines as a partner for this year’s beach volleyball season. Just like the German Beach Tour with its athletes and fans, the Discover Airlines team stands for sporting spirit, professionalism and good vibes. We are convinced that this team constellation will provide us with a top-class live sports experience this summer,” says Alexander Walkenhorst, Managing Director of NBO Event GmbH.
