greek Games 2026
Greek chapters take flight
Organizations are challenged to transform campus culture through strategic self-discovery. Each chapter becomes a vessel of collective potential, mapping uncharted territories of human performance.
What is The Icarus Games?
The Icarus Games is a modern reimagining of the Greek Games — a campus-wide competition that merges energy, self-awareness, and social connection.
It’s where Red Bull’s performance culture meets The Pill AI’s consumer insight tech, creating a new kind of arena: one where students don’t just compete to win — they compete to understand themselves.
Part pep rally. Part personality quest. Part cultural movement.
The Icarus Games are the ultimate test of how high you can fly when your mind and energy are in sync.
“Give STUDENT Well-Being Wiiings”
Every great journey begins with understanding oneself. The Icarus Games transform individual potential into collective energy, creating a blueprint for student excellence that goes beyond traditional competition.
THE ICARUS IDEA
Sports, energy, and wellness are no longer separate conversations — they’re converging into a single lifestyle movement for the next generation. Students and fans aren’t just chasing performance on the field or in the classroom; they’re seeking balance, resilience, and mental energy to thrive.
This partnership positions Red Bull at the forefront of that convergence — activating around Philly Fest 2026 through The Pill AI, and Phambassador to show how “energy for the body and clarity for the mind” work hand-in-hand.
The ICARUS Objective
To elevate Greek Life wellness, self-awareness, and community engagement through a high-energy, co-branded competition powered by the Red Bull’s 'Gives You Wiiings' ethos.
Chapters will compete in the Icarus Games, where only those who truly understand their vibe, their mind, and their mood can rise the highest — without flying too close to the sun.
The ICARUS Theme
Inspired by the myth of Icarus — who dared to fly higher — this competition empowers Greek organizations to soar using the Wings of well-being, personality insights, and music-based mood mapping.
The most self-aware, musically-aligned, and connected chapter claims the Golden Wings Trophy.
Red Bull provides the wings.
The Pill AI provides the tools.
