Bulleit Frontier has partnered with the Tribeca Film Festival to celebrate cultural creators from storytellers to innovators and those on the frontier of film as part of a multiyear sponsorship. In addition to featuring Bulleit at all official Festival venues, parties, and film afterparties, the duo will be co-sponsoring the Ninth Annual Tribeca Disruptive Innovation Awards (TDIA) and launching the “Frontier Works: Do Tanks.”
A spokesman for Bulleit states that “we have always been passionate about supporting the arts and those that dedicate their lives to innovation, which is one of the reasons why Bulleit and Tribeca Film Festival have partnered in the festivals 17th year: to highlight the cultural frontier of filmmaking. This marks the beginning of our partnership with Tribeca Film Festival.”
“The Bulleit brand has been built by people, partnerships and collaborations on the frontier of culture,” said Sophie Kelly, Senior Vice President of North American Whiskeys for DIAGEO. “The focus of this Frontier Works partnership will be facilitating projects and telling stories on the frontier of culture. Today we hold our first Frontier Works: Do Tank, focusing on the frontier of urban disruption. The Do Tank will be a series of collaborations which aim to generate real projects and actions that will stir the frontier spirit in everyone and create real impact in culture.”
On Saturday night, as an official sponsor of the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival and official host of The Seagull afterparty – Bulleit raised a glass to honor those pushing boundaries in order to live on the edge of the cultural frontier. Bulleit welcomed key cast members (and Academy Award Nominees): Annette Bening, Saoirse Ronan and the director: Michael Mayer to an exclusive party at New York’s Mailroom, for specialty Bulleit cocktails and a celebration of the films’ international debut.
