Here's How To Celebrate the NBA Playoffs & Finals With Hennessy in Sydney, Australia
Hennessy, the iconic Cognac brand, has teamed up with the NBA on a global partnership making them the Official Spirit of the NBA. This means that fans across the globe can take part in the action happening in participating cities, including Sydney, Australia.
Hennessy and the NBA recently turned Icebergs Ocean pool at Bondi Beach into a pop-up basketball court combining artful design with the energy of the NBA. This marked the kickoff to a series of Hennessy x NBA events happening around the city. Check out the video above and pictures below for a closer look.
Hennessy is also taking over House Bar in Barangaroo House until July 22.
