Smirnoff announces new global partnership with Troye Sivan

Leading vodka brand Smirnoff has announced the appointment of Grammy-nominated global star Troye Sivan as its new Chief Vibes OFFicer (CVO), marking the start of a new multi-year partnership with the Australian singer-songwriter.

One of the most celebrated artists in popular culture today, Sivan has just completed the much anticipated ‘Sweat’ tour alongside friend, artist and frequent collaborator Charli XCX, and is about to embark on the Australia and New Zealand leg of his global solo tour, following the release of his hit 2023 album, ‘Something to Give Each Other’.


Amidst this busy schedule, Sivan will now step into his tongue-in-cheek CVO role as global ‘curator of immaculate vibes’ for Smirnoff – showcasing the Go OFF spirit to fans all around the world. The campaign is a call to arms to ditch to-do lists and dive into some fun - getting together, going out and going OFF. As the next stage of the brand’s wider WE DO WE campaign, it aims to create a more connected, open and exhilarating world.

“We are so excited to partner with Troye - as someone who radiates joy and shares our ‘WE DO WE’ spirit he is the ultimate vibe shifter for his fans all around the world,” Stephanie Jacoby, SVP Global Vodkas at Diageo, said.

“We knew from the moment we first spoke to Troye and his team that this was going to be something truly special – we share a passion for fun, for bringing people together and for not taking ourselves too seriously.

“I am delighted to welcome our new Chief Vibes OFFicer to the team, Troye is the perfect fit, and we can’t wait to collaborate over the coming months together – exciting things to come!”

The partnership launched this week across socials, after a series of teaser drops, with a video showing Sivan taking part in a tongue-in-cheek press conference, announcing his new CVO position to interviewers and sharing his mission, for people to Go OFF.

In true Smirnoff style, a collective of global creatives was brought together to craft the latest Go OFF work and bring a pop-world spin to the vibrant Smirnoff brand world.

Sivan said: “For me, Smirnoff has always been omnipresent – whether it’s at house parties, backstage at shows, or nights out with friends. I see the brand all around the world, and whenever I do, it feels like something I want to be part of. "Go OFF” is all about getting people together and being ourselves, something I’ve really embraced in this part of my life and something I’m excited to continue to do with this partnership.”

The launch will be followed by Smirnoff’s sponsorship of Sivan’s Australia and New Zealand tour where he will share the Go OFF vibes with fans at exclusive after parties in both Sydney and Melbourne.

The global partnership will show up across social, OOH, digital, in-store and through event activations in over 20 countries including the UK, Brazil, Australia and India over the coming months and forms part of Diageo's wider focus on embedding their brands at the heart of key cultural moments for consumers - from music and fashion to sports, food and more.
