THE PLAY® partners with Ballon d'Or

THE PLAY®️ has partnered with the Ballon d'Or to create unique nomination posters for each of the 80 athletes nominated for the 2024 awards. Ahead of the Paris ceremony, every nominee received a personalized, limited-edition poster that artistically honors their journey and achievements in football.

"Our goal was to create something special for these athletes, recognizing not only their nominations but the dedication that brought them here,” said Kim Bernhard, co-founder and CEO of THE PLAY®️. “It’s an honor to contribute creatively to the Ballon d'Or and share our designs with the world.”

Soon, fans can also purchase standard digital prints of these exclusive designs from THE PLAY®️'s online shop. For more information about releases, scroll down and sign up to our newsletter.

These limited-edition pieces honor the talent, dedication, and passion of this year’s nominees, and we’re excited to share this moment with athletes and fans alike."
