Audi goes Hollywood : to sponsor AFI Fest yet again

When watching one of the latest Entourage show 's you could see an Audi R8 in the background as the crew strolled out of a club.

This was a nice plug for the Audi brand: even better though is the sponsorship of the AFI Fest this year in Hollywood. This is Audi's sixth consecutive year of sponsoring the AFI Fest which is a nine day event of film premieres, red carpet galas and special events.

"AFI FEST celebrates creativity and innovation, so Audi is an ideal partner for us," said Bob Gazzale, AFI President and CEO. "The Audi commitment to the arts and to AFI FEST is well established, and fits hand-in-glove with its emphasis on design."

“The influence and character of AFI FEST aligns well with the prestige of the Audi brand,” said Scott Keogh, Chief Marketing Officer, Audi of America. “Our role as presenting sponsor in 2009 comes at a very excitingmoment in the event’s history.”

My choice of vehicle for the event would have to be the Q7 TDI.
