Dove and Chika Launch ‘Hot Seats’ Concert Campaign Featuring Charli xcx, SOFI TUKKER, Olivia Rodrigo And More

To kick Hot Seats off, Dove hosted an exclusive pop-up concert with iconic genre-defying duo SOFI TUKKER at SILO in Brooklyn on April 1.

Earlier this year, Dove introduced Let Your Body Body, its Whole Body Deo campaign featuring a custom track by artist, actress, and producer Chika – a fresh take on Khia’s 2002 anthem, My Neck, My Back, and reimagined to inspire body confidence and self-love through movement and dance. Now, Dove is taking it beyond the screen and putting music fans in the center of the action with the launch of Dove Hot Seats.

Live music brings the heat – but that doesn’t mean you have to smell like it. With over 56 million TikTok views of people begging concertgoers to wear deodorant, it’s clear that B.O. is killing the vibe. That’s where the new Dove Whole Body Deo Cooling Spray comes in. With 72-hour odor control, this all-over solution lets fans dance like nobody’s smelling.

As fans show up for the artists they love, Dove is showing up for them. Hot Seats aims to give music lovers access to this year’s biggest concerts – and equips them with Dove Whole Body Deo so they can dance with total confidence.

To kick things off, Dove hosted an exclusive pop-up concert with iconic genre-defying duo SOFI TUKKER at SILO in Brooklyn on April 1. Fans showed up to claim ‘Hot Seats’ for themselves and a friend—scoring access to an intimate, high-energy set.

Next up for Hot Seats? Charli xcx’s sold-out U.S. Brat Tour. From there, Dove is turning up the heat with exclusive ‘Hot Seats’ at Lollapalooza in Chicago (July 31 – August 3), letting fans sweat confidently while vibing to artists like Olivia RodrigoSabrina Carpenter, Doechii and more.
