Be Present!
As a pioneering initiative in the country, Coca-Cola SZIN has launched the "Be Present!" movement to raise awareness that a "phone-free concert" can provide a more complete experience for fans. Szeged-born rapper Marci Szirmai a.k.a. Pogány Induló joined the call and sent a message to the SZIN visitors: "Make one story, but then let's put the phone away and enjoy the party!"
