SHELTON, Conn., April 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — BIC, a global leader in lighters since 1973, is teaming up again with America’s favorite trio, entertainment superstar Snoop Dogg, music icon Willie Nelson and lifestyle innovator Martha Stewart, to bring a slow, satisfying burn to the 420 weekend. “Slow Burn Sessions” by BIC EZ Reach Lighters features 4 hours and 20 minutes of exclusive content on YouTube that will give viewers a chance to unwind with three celebrity-led, mood-setting segments, each with their own flare.
According to Jeany Mui, Marketing Director, BIC Flame for Life, “These three legends are no strangers to 420 high-jinx, having teamed up for last year’s herb-friendly 420 campaign – “BIC Lights Up America.” We’re delighted to reunite them for Slow Burn Sessions.”
As a gift to those who celebrate the chillest of holidays, BIC is offering 20% off EZ Reach lighters on BIC.com. The discount code can be found within each of the sessions and will also run for a limited time.
“It’s been so fun to partner with my good friends at BIC to spread some holiday cheer ahead of 420. The BIC EZ Reach lighter is my tried and true pot accessory, fondue pot that is…” said Martha Stewart.
“Slow Burn Sessions are the ultimate way to kick back and relax with friends on 420 weekend and we’re excited to bring together our favorite lighter-loving trio as the hosts,” said Mui. “EZ Reach Lighters are the go-to accessory for everyone gathering to celebrate the 420 holiday.”
Snoop Dogg, Martha Stewart joined forces with Willie Nelson in 2023 for the third iteration of BIC’s viral EZ Reach Lighter campaign, “Most Borrowed Lighter” to reinforce the pocket-sized lighter’s 1.45-inch extended wand that helps light hard-to-reach places and helps keep fingers away from the flame.
“Spend your holiday weekend with me and my friends while we host our own Slow Burn Session with BIC this 420. It’ll be a very chill time,” said Willie Nelson.
