About Red Bull Street Rhythm

With his quick feet and a keen eye for the goal, Dutch National football player and striker for FC Barcelona Memphis Depay is this year’s newly announced Red Bull athlete. And what better way to celebrate it than to have a kick-around? But this time not in a big sports arena but at the Onderzeebootloods in Rotterdam, the Netherlands instead. During the event “Red Bull Street Rhythm by Memphis Depay,” two passions of the famous striker were brought together. Street football and hip-hop. Red Bull held the event on the second of July in 2022. 

Memphis invited eight captains to assemble their best team of 5 players for a street football tournament. The captains included well-known names from both the music and football worlds like Edgar Davids, Steven Bergwijn, Winne Jairzinho and Akwasi to name just a few.

Role of Backbone

Red Bull held such a launch for the first time. Team Backbone was responsible for the production management and technical production of the event. This included among other things creating a panna area and stacking up several shipping containers to create the street look & feel.
