THE ASSIGNMENT: Bond Meets Beach
Mission Overview: Your objective, dear agent, is to uncover intel about a destination renowned for captivating even the most seasoned travelers: Newport Beach. This mission demands top-tier discretion, a sharp sense of adventure, and perhaps the occasional martini.
The Background: For a quarter century, the Newport Beach Film Festival has been celebrated as one of the largest luxury lifestyle film festivals in the United States, showcasing exceptional talent through its dedicated UK spotlight of outstanding works by British and Irish actors across film and television. This February, Newport Beach’s elite agents will rendezvous at the illustrious Raffles London at The OWO, to honor the crème de la crème of cinematic artistry both in front of and behind the camera just prior to the 78th Annual BAFTA Awards.
Be advised: Visit Newport Beach, in partnership with the Newport Beach Film Festival, will engage top-tier UK agents to immerse themselves in a Newport luxury travel experience befitting the impeccable tastes of James Bond—the ultimate icon of the world’s greatest luxury travelers. The evening’s journey promises moments of luxury, cinematic excellence, and the magic of 007.
Your Mission:
Ahead of this grand celebration, on 11th February 2025, at 6:30 PM, you are summoned to report to The Spy Bar, located in the Old War Office Building, Raffles Hotel, London.
