Bondi Beach lands official hydration partner in Liquid I.V.

Medium Rare has launched a sponsorship and experiences division, locking in Liquid I.V. as Bondi Beach's official hydration partner.

In a first-of-its-kind deal with Waverley Council, the No.1 powdered hydration brand in the U.S. secures exclusive branding at Australia's most iconic shoreline - a global hotspot for sun, surf, and now, electrolytes.

Head of Medium Rare sponsorship and experiences, Chris Joy said: "Our purpose is to bring innovation and creativity to sectors traditionally untapped by sponsorships. This partnership marks a historic first for Bondi Beach with Waverley Council creating unique intellectual property to support this and future collaborations.

"By creating a platform for brands to authentically align with one of the world’s most iconic locations, we’re setting a new standard for partnerships that deliver value to both clients and the local community."
