With the latest season airing in November 2023, tombola and its famous bugs are once again infiltrating the jungle.
James Boord, Group Marketing Director at tombola, said, “tombola is fortunate enough to boast a tight knit community of players who are at the heart of everything we do. With the renewal of our ITV sponsorship for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! we aim to strengthen our bonds with our existing players and introduce our games to those new to online bingo by immersing them in the excitement and thrill of the bug world and the show.”
This year, the much-loved #tombolabugs will make a return and add a touch of humour to the show’s sponsorship idents. These quirky bug characters, a staple of tombola’s partnership with I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, have become fan favourites, bringing some laughter into the ad breaks on ITV1, STV, STV Player and ITVX.

To make this year’s sponsorship even more exciting for players, tombola is inviting people to play “Bug Match”, a free-to-play game featuring the tombola bugs. Players, both new and existing, can engage with the bugs daily during I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! for a chance to win prizes up to £1,000. With over 500,000 winners expected, “Bug Match” adds an extra layer of fun to the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! experience, exclusively on tombola.

The Brazilian sports betting brand doubles down on its national presence with a humorous new campaign spotlighting customer benefits, responsible gaming, and celebrity appeal.
One of Brazil’s rising names in the online betting industry, LuckBet, has launched a new nationwide advertising campaign featuring acclaimed actor and motorsport enthusiast Caio Castro. The commercial, which blends humor with strategic brand messaging, is now airing on Globoplay and will debut on Sportv.
The witty commercial stars Caio Castro in a creative split-role talk show, where he plays both the host and the guest. While only one version of him gets to talk (the host, of course), the dialogue cleverly introduces LuckBet’s key strengths—focusing on entertainment, trust, and unique player benefits.
“Caio Castro communicates our message with natural charisma and humor, while staying aligned with our brand’s core values: entertainment, simplicity, and responsibility,” said Ivan Dutra, CEO of LuckBet. “This new commercial is fast-paced, engaging, and truly represents who we are as a company.”
LuckBet: A Responsible and Player-First Betting Platform
As the only betting operator from Mato Grosso officially listed by Brazil’s Ministry of Finance, LuckBet offers a wide range of player-centric features. These include:
-
Unlimited withdrawals
-
24/7 humanized customer support
-
Weekly cashback on losses
LuckBet’s informal, street-smart communication style—rich in slang and expressions familiar to younger audiences—helps it stand out in Brazil’s crowded iGaming market. This distinctive approach is designed to foster a more authentic connection with bettors across all touchpoints.
Celebrity-Driven Brand With Social Impact
Since its founding in 2021, LuckBet, headquartered in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, has rapidly grown its reputation through high-profile partnerships and sponsorships, including support for Cuiabá EC football club. Alongside Caio Castro, the brand also works with rapper PKFreestyle and sports journalist Isa Pagliari to broaden its appeal.
Importantly, LuckBet is a strong advocate for Responsible Gaming, offering tools such as self-exclusion, reality checks, and integrations with international support organizations like Gambling Therapy and GambleAware. The company adheres strictly to Brazil’s 2025 gambling regulations, operating transparently under newly defined federal guidelines.
