NEW YORK, N.Y., Aug. 28, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Wells Fargo, the financial services leader dedicated to serving customers and their communities, and HANG Media, the award-winning fan engagement agency, are teaming up this fall to deliver a series of free virtual watch parties celebrating football and music.

Launching August 30 with the Orange Blossom Classic, the initiative will run through November and give fans the chance to interact on-camera with entertainers and athletes while watching the games or shows on their own TVs. Thanks to Wells Fargo’s support, participation is free.

The partnership builds on a relationship that began with the 2021 Celebration Bowl. Since then, HANG and Wells Fargo have collaborated on dozens of interactive events, connecting tens of millions of fans with stars like Shannon Sharpe, Anthony Anderson, JB Smoove, Terrell Owens, and Chris Carter. Wells Fargo leaders have also shared insights on personal finance and careers, adding unique value for attendees.

“Our HANG watch parties not only bring the fun – they provide Wells Fargo with a uniquely personal way to thank the customers and communities who are central to our mission,” said Gigi Dixon, Wells Fargo’s Executive Vice President and Head of External Engagement. “By engaging fans where their passions live, inside the excitement of live sports and music, we’re able to forge authentic connections that go far beyond traditional sponsorships.”
