Another Icon is a stay in the Paris Art Museum’s iconic clock room, transformed into a luxurious bedroom by Mathieu Lehanneur, designer of the Paris 2024 Games torch and cauldron.

Airbnb, the home rental site, on Thursday unveiled a campaign that transforms the concept of accommodation into an immersive experience.

The initiative, announced by CEO Brian Chesky at a Los Angeles event, introduces 11 Icons, a new category of experiences hosted by renowned figures from various fields.

Bollywood star Janhvi Kapoor is among the first 11 Icons, offering an overnight stay at her family home in Chennai, where guests can learn her beauty secrets and taste her favourite South Indian dishes.

Brian Chesky, Co-founder and CEO of Airbnb, in a company statement, said, “Icons take you inside worlds that only existed in your imagination—until now. As life becomes increasingly digital, we’re focused on bringing more magic into the real world. With Icons, we’ve created the most extraordinary experiences on earth.”

The other Icons include a stay in the home from the Disney movie ‘Up’, located in the scenic red rocks of Abiquiu, New Mexico, complete with more than 8,000 balloons. Guests can also spend the night at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello, Italy, and take a lap with Scuderia Ferrari ambassador driver Marc Gené.

Another iconic stay is in the Paris Art Museum’s iconic clock room, transformed into a luxurious bedroom by Mathieu Lehanneur, designer of the Paris 2024 Games torch and cauldron.

Icons will be featured as a category on the Airbnb homepage. Most Icons are free, and all are priced under $100 per guest. Guests can request to book through the app, and those selected will receive a digital golden ticket. More than 4,000 tickets will be available in 2024, a CNBC TV18 report said.
