Virgin Vintage Fever

During this Valentine season, Virgin Megastore is turning the clock back to an era that brought into the world Marilyn Monroe, classic cars, jukeboxes and rock music. Under the theme "Vintage Fever", Virgin Megastore is hosting for 2 weeks a vintage exhibition inspired by the golden days. The launch event took place at Virgin Megastore Opera Branch in downtown and gathered a happy bunch of oldies' fans as well as members of the local media.

 

The Vintage Fever idea emerged from Virgin Megastore's belief in the glory of the golden era and how it paved the way for the present and the future. The exhibition features a plethora of vintage items from Books, Music and DVDs to Multimedia and Gadgets brought specifically for the occasion.

 

Maya Saab, Marketing Manager of Virgin Megastore in Lebanon commented on the occasion: "Valentine's Day is becoming more and more commercial and overrated every year; people seem to have forgotten what true love really means. This is why we decided, this year, to take them on a trip down memory lane through old artists, classical movies, oldies music, vintage gadgets and collectible items in an attempt to revive retro-love in the hearts of the new generation"

 

In line with the Vintage Fever spirit and its long-standing commitment to support the Lebanese films production industry, Virgin Megastore is hosting in its Opera Downtown branch, on Thursday the 6^th of February, a signing session dedicated to outstanding filmmaker Philippe Aractingi whose work inspired an industry that was almost absent in Lebanon at the time he started his career in the early 80s.

 

The Vintage fever is kick-starting at Virgin Megastore's Opera Downtown branch then spreading to  all branches across Lebanon to offer Virgin Megastore visitors the chance to select their preferred Valentine gifts from a variety of offerings.
