‘We’ve been there for it all’ builds on previous campaigns and puts a modern twist on the iconic Four’N Twenty anthem, which was made famous in the original Four’N Twenty bus commercials, which featured iconic legends Including Jack Dyer, Lou Richards and Ted Whitten.

The new commercial will feature current legends who have captivated sports fans across Australia and abroad since the turn of the century: Ben Simmons, Jonathan Brown, George Gregan, Steven Bradbury, and Four’N Twenty’s newest brand ambassador, dual professional athlete, Tayla Harris.

Long-standing Four’N Twenty ambassadors Ben Simmons and Jonathan Brown are excited to be part of this generation’s time capsule.

Says Brown: “I remember being captivated by Four’N Twenty’s bus ads as a youngster – everyone dreamt of having a seat on that bus! I’m honoured to finally be part of an iconic Four’N Twenty commercial that will go down in history, especially in such great company.”
