ROCKING THE HIGH SEAS: KISS X AIRBNB ANIMAL EXPERIENCES

THE LEGENDARY ROCK BAND KISS TEAMED UP WITH AIRBNB FOR A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME EVENT: A CONCERT FOR GREAT WHITE SHARKS OFF THE COAST OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA. THIS UNIQUE EXPERIENCE, PART OF AIRBNB'S ANIMAL EXPERIENCES CATEGORY, AIMED TO RAISE AWARENESS FOR MARINE CONSERVATION.

THE EVENT

GUESTS EMBARKED ON A BOAT JOURNEY, WHERE KISS, ABOARD THEIR OWN VESSEL, PERFORMED SOME OF THEIR GREATEST HITS.
