On Monday, the Osijek Pedestrian Bridge shone bright in Osijek colours to the satisfaction of many Osijek citizens who arrived to the Promenade and participated in the event. As mentioned, it’s Coca-Cola’s project in tandem with Osijek and Zumbtobel that was realized thanks to our citizens who gathered 108,048 bottle caps. It is certain that guest sentering Osijek will want to see this attraction in its full glowing glory during the evening hours!

Playing with Light Effects

Stijepan Petrovic, regional sales leader for Coca-Cola for eastern Croatia, announces:

- Our goal is the interaction with the public by organizing interesting events, like giving the public a true light show on their Pedestrian Bridge! For instance, when our national team plays in Osijek, we can color the bridge in red and white. Osijek will be backed by a white and blue light show, which was already done and people loved it. May Osijek stay in the Euro-League for as long as possible, so the bridge will shine for them.

 

Coca-Cola sign on jerseys

NK Osijek was involved in the project from the start, not solely because of the 1947 symbolic caps. Our footballers and Board members participated in adverisements and director Igor Galic said that the bridge looks beautiful and we should be proud to have such an attraction in our city. He adds how the cooperation between Osijek and Coca-Cola is beautiful and we all participate in this global project, “Pokrenimo Grad””. He reminded us that our younger players will tout Coca-Cola signs on their jerseys, which is a unique case not only in Croatia, but in Europe. For such a large company to recognize Osijek’s worth is an honor, especially considering our project.
