Lyft offers discounted rides on Emmys night even if you're far from the red carpet
Even if you're far from the Hollywood glamour for Monday's 70th annual Emmy Awards, you can ride in style, or at least for less money.
Lyft, in conjunction with vodka company Ketel One Vodka, is offering 10,000 discounted rides through the ride-hailing app for the award show on Monday night. It's not just for celebrities heading to the red carpet and exclusive after-parties like the Governors Ball, but for home viewers like you.
Anyone across the U.S. can use the promo code “KetelOneXEmmys” to receive $5 ride credit to use on a trip to an Emmys viewing party or after-party -- or let's be real, to get home after work to watch on your couch.
The code works Monday starting 12:01 a.m. PT through late Monday night at 11:59 p.m. PT.
It might be a bit late now, but Ketel One Vodka also has Lyft discount codes tucked away in alcohol kits that can be purchased online at Cocktail Courier, such as the Radiance kit with rosé, tonic, bitters, dehydrated flowers, orange oil, and, of course, vodka.
To use the code, open the Lyft app and click on the "Promos" pull-down option. You can already plug in the discount code and it'll be ready to use Monday.
The annual award show is the crowning moment for everything on television (and streaming services) and this year will be hosted by Saturday Night Live stars Michael Che and Colin Jost.
The Emmys air Monday on NBC.
