Silvercar, the all-Audi A4 rental company, will contribute to Distinctive Assets’ 13th annual “Everyone Wins at the Oscars” VIP Gift Bag. The app-based car rental brand is giving away a year’s worth of rentals and fuel, valued at $20,000.
The gift bag will be given to all nominees who don't win an Oscar in the five major event categories (Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Director) and to this year’s Oscar’s host, Neil Patrick Harris. The awards ceremony will take place on Feb. 22 in Los Angeles.
“We’re honored to have been selected as a gift for this year's nominees at the height of their careers,” said Silvercar CEO Luke Schneider. “We already count many of Hollywood's top talent as loyal customers and look forward to having the opportunity to win over many more.”
Currently, Silvercar is available at airports in Dallas, Denver, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Phoenix and San Francisco.
