VIP Lounge at the London 2012 Olympic Games Offers Visa Chase Cardholders Exclusive Experiences

Today, Visa announced the creation of a VIP Lounge available exclusively to Visa Chase Cardmembers during the London 2012 Olympic Games. Visa’s VIP Lounge will offer a complimentary retreat in the center of the city for Visa Chase Cardmembers to enjoy while attending the Olympic Games.

The VIP Lounge will also host a series of meet-and-greet events for Visa Chase Cardmembers to attend with Olympic athletes, who will sign autographs, tell their personal Olympic stories and pose for photographs with cardmembers.

Additionally, the VIP Lounge has partnered with celebrity Chef Morimoto to create a pop-up restaurant at the venue throughout the Olympic Games. Visa Chase Cardmembers will enjoy a wide selection of Iron Chef Morimoto’s favorite dishes from his Asian-inspired menu as well as his take on more traditional British and American fare.

Cardmembers can view a full schedule of special events and make a reservation for these extraordinary experiences at www.VisaVIPLounge.com/Chase to guarantee a spot. General admission to the VIP Lounge during the events and throughout the day is complimentary and does not require a reservation; cardmembers will simply show their Visa Card issued by Chase to enter.

The VIP Lounge will be open daily from 10am – midnight GMT, July 26th through August 12th, 2012. The venue is situated in the heart of the West End at 116 Pall Mall, a short walk from the Piccadilly Tube Station and major hotels.

Special Features at the VIP Lounge every day include:

Chef Morimoto Culinary Experiences from 6-10pm GMT nightly

Olympic Athlete meet-and-greet events

Continental breakfast, lunch, tea, snacks, and beverages throughout the day

More than 15 HDTVs

Wi-Fi & Computer access

Concierge Services and phone recharging

And, in the spirit of The Games, the VIP Lounge will be giving away a commemorative gift for first time visitors. In addition, the VIP Lounge will provide a keepsake for those in the lounge each time the U.S. wins a medal.
