Xbox Announces Partnership With Plan B At Ibiza Rocks This Summer
Do you remember back in April when we brought you the news that you could win a summer job at Ibiza Rocks, in association with Microsoft and Xbox 360? Well, as well as announcing the first (of three) winner of the competition, it has now come to light that Plan B will be performing at the Ibiza Rocks opening party, as well as taking part in a number of activities for Xbox, including back-stage access, interviews and exclusive video content!
“I’m really looking forward to opening Ibiza Rocks this year, the Xbox team have sorted us out with Kinect for Xbox 360, which I’m looking forward to trying out in my hotel room on the sunshine isle next week”, said Plan B.
Alongside partnerships with top talent appearing at Ibiza Rocks, Xbox announces the first of three winners to win a summer job like no other, working for Xbox at the Ibiza Rocks Hotel. David French, a 25 year old Graduate, will be the first official on-the-ground Xbox representative hosting talent, guests at the hotel and Ibiza movers and shakers at the Xbox sponsored Ibiza Rocks Penthouse.
Hailing from Guildford, Surrey, David was selected over hundreds of entries and stood out throughout the application process by providing quirky answers and proving that he had the experience, charm and gravitas to handle the role. After submitting a creative video outlining why he should be the chosen person Xbox host, David was then invited to a group interview session where his talents and suitability for the role shone through.
Commenting on his win, David said “I am absolutely thrilled to have won such an amazing role. I can’t wait to get out there and start working; I know it’ll be challenging but a lot of fun and I look forward to what will no doubt be an amazing experience.”
In a little over a week, David will be jetting off for a jam packed summer in Ibiza where he will be managing all Xbox 360 activities, including Kinect user trials and events management.
Launching on 1st June the Xbox 360 Ibiza Rocks Hotel Facebook page will host news from on-the-ground, concerts and exclusive content footage. Xbox owners will also be able to take advantage of additional exclusive footage via Xbox LIVE and Zune marketplace, which will include a bespoke Ibiza Rocks area where LIVE members can access exclusive playlists, images and limited addition Ibiza Rocks avatar t-shirts.
