MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Evine Live Inc. (“Evine”) (NASDAQ: EVLV ), a multiplatform video commerce company (evine.com), today announced that it will broadcast a live, first-of-its kind watch event aboard the Carnival Victory Cruise ship, February 9 – 13. Evine’s “Invicta Ocean Voyage Live” event will take fans inside and behind the scenes of an Invicta-themed cruise experience.
“Evine regularly transports customers to exotic shopping destinations, but we’ve never done anything quite like this,” said Bob Rosenblatt, Chief Executive Officer of Evine. “By partnering with Invicta and leveraging the talents and technologies of our broadcast team, we’ve set our sights on a new endeavor: broadcasting Evine programming live aboard a cruise ship. Through this event, we hope to bring the excitement of the Invicta Ocean Voyage directly to customers’ living rooms and on their different screens, while creating an entertaining shopping experience like no other.”
Over the past 15 years, Invicta and Evine have partnered to create more than 30 destination-based shopping experiences, taking viewers to places across the United States, Mexico and the Bahamas. In addition, Evine has held a number of live broadcast events from Las Vegas, New York City, Waterford Ireland, and Evine’s most recent venture, a weekly live broadcast show from Paula Deen’s Savannah, Georgia home.
The “Invicta Ocean Voyage Live” event kicks off on February 9 at 5pm ET with a live broadcast from the Invicta Marine Pavilion before the ship sets sail the following day. During the event, customers will have the opportunity to shop more than 100 new designs, including several brand new Disney watch styles and a variety of collector-favorite collections including the Subaqa Noma, Bolt and Russian Diver collections.
“One of the things that sets Invicta apart from almost any other brand is our community of passionate watch enthusiasts,” said Eyal Lalo, CEO of Invicta Watch Group. “That’s what makes the Invicta Ocean Voyage so special… not only is this the first time we’ll broadcast live aboard a cruise ship, but it’s the first time this community will come together on such a large scale. I look forward to meeting these enthusiasts in person and am excited to partner with Evine to bring this experience to collectors everywhere.”
