off to / bound for / headed to

I think any of these would work.

"Off to" probably is best in an advertising context, since it has an undertone of excitement/adventure.

What is XYZ, by the way, in your sentences?

Note from asker:
Thanks, Todd. That would be the brand: Brand XYZ e você. Rumo às Olimpíadas de 2012. :)
