No better than skincare— but water.
Two hundred is a crazy number. Believe it or not, evian® is marking 200 years since it first started bottling its natural mineral water back in 1826. To celebrate this milestone, the brand unveiled a striking portrait for its new Live Young Collective. Set against the snowy peaks of the French Alps, world-renowned artist Jeff Koons joins sports icons Carlos Alcaraz, Emma Raducanu, Frances Tiafoe, and Céline Boutier beside a vintage delivery truck. Together, they highlight evian®’s long-standing connection to culture, tennis, and golf.
200 Years of Freshness with Jeff Koons
Additionally, this bicentenary brings together two true icons. evian® teamed up with Jeff Koons to launch two limited-edition glass bottles. Available in pink for still water and blue for sparkling, the bottles feature Koons’ famous ‘Balloon Dog’ artwork. This joyful design brings a fun, celebratory feel to dining tables around the world.
Speaking about his collaboration with evian®, Jeff Koons, says:
When evian approached me, the message about youth immediately resonated with me. It reflects a truth I deeply believe in: youth is not defined by age, but by a mindset. I’ve always loved evian® natural mineral water, so when I was invited to celebrate the brand’s 200 Years Young milestone, I was excited to create these special limited-edition bottles.”
Jeff even shared his sentiment on including his signature stamp
I chose to incorporate my ‘Balloon Dog’ into the design because it not only echoes the iconic status of the brand itself, but also embodies the spirit of celebration, playfulness, curiosity, and the joy of creating, a moment that feels both life-giving and uplifting.”
Unleashing Freshness Magic to Fine Dining
Beyond art and sports, evian® is bringing this celebration directly to the table.
The water features a unique, balanced mineral profile that resets your palate. As a result, it helps prepare your taste buds for delicate flavors, whether you choose still or sparkling water.
Furthermore, this culinary celebration is rolling out across Asia-Pacific throughout 2026. Food lovers can look forward to the Jeff Koons glass bottles appearing at top restaurants across the region. Highlights will include signature mixology drinks and exclusive 4 Hands Dinners featuring evian® Chef Ambassadors.
Protecting the Pure Alpine Source
Behind this 200-year legacy lies an exceptional natural journey. evian® water is naturally filtered through glacial rocks in the French Alps over a 15-year period. To protect this precious supply, evian® has partnered with 13 local municipalities for over 30 years to safeguard a 125 km² natural ecosystem. Their effort focuses on three main goals: promoting sustainable agriculture, protecting wetlands and ecosystems, and encouraging responsible regional growth.
To kick off the celebrations, evian® is inviting friends of the brand to a special event in Évian-les-Bains. Guests will explore the protected landscape that gives evian® its balanced minerals and immerse themselves in the culture surrounding the brand.
Dawid Borowiec, the Global Director at evian®, says,
Two centuries in, still living young, still flowing forward. Celebrating 200 years is a defining milestone for evian® and a reminder of how deeply our brand is rooted in its source and the generations of care that have protected it. Welcoming guests back to Évian‑les‑Bains allows us to share the expertise and long‑term stewardship behind our natural mineral water, while reaffirming our commitment to safeguard it for the future..”
This anniversary also celebrates the cultural worlds they are proud to be part of. From tennis and golf, to fine dining. As we look ahead to the next chapter of evian®’s Live Young mission.
