While Airbnb has already established itself as a publicity ace with its ongoing campaign of transforming iconic locations into accommodations for a night, the platform has created a master stroke on the occasion of the 2024 Olympic Games, with the opening of a temporary room in Paris's Orsay museum that provides privileged access to the terrace for a close-up view of the opening ceremony.
While rumours abound about which artists will surprise spectators at the opening ceremony - the latest one suggests Celine Dion could make an appearance, one thing at least is certain: two lucky people will have a front-row seat for this extraordinary show. Airbnb is creating an experience that will give two guests a privileged view of the Seine, while staying at the Musée d'Orsay.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
