Norwegians open their homes to football fans

Tourists travelling to Norway this summer, can watch the Euro games in a genuine Norwegian home. All over Norway, Norwegians are opening up their homes and cabins to travelling football fans to watch the Euro.

Whether they forgot it was the Euro, or they just want a unique football experience, People travelling to Norway can book a seat in a family couch and get a football experience for a life time.

Through the simple service called “MatchMaker”, tourists can find local hosts all over the country, and book a match at their place. It might be in their homes, at their mountain cottage, or in their boat. Norwegians bring their TV with them everywhere, and although Norway did not qualify for the Euro, their hospitality have not changed.

The MatchMaker service is free and comes with no strings attached. The host and the tourists meet through the service, but are themselves responsible for setting up a date.

It is the Norwegian TV Distributor RiksTV AS which is organizing this campaign, aimed to highlight their “TV everywhere” service through showing how generous their customers are, having the benefit of TV wherever they are in the country.

The service will be marketed at tourists in Norway through Social Media and on Norwegian Air Shuttle flights, with ads on their own language.
