Speaking during the celebrations, Julius Ssenungi, Shopper Manager for Johnnie Walker, said the Bottle Turn Up platform was designed to offer consumers a premium whisky experience.

"The Johnnie Walker Bottle Turn Ups are our way of giving back to our consumers by creating experiences where they can enjoy the whisky at great value while immersing themselves in a full Johnnie Walker brand experience. This Father's Day weekend, we wanted to celebrate the incredible fathers and father figures who have inspired those around them to keep walking. What better way to honour them than dedicating an entire Bottle Turn Up weekend to them?" he said.

According to the organisers, the Bottle Turn Up campaign will continue at selected bars and lounges across the country, offering consumers an opportunity to enjoy Johnnie Walker through curated entertainment experiences.
