This year, the eagerly anticipated Coca‑Cola Christmas Truck Tour will return to cities across the UK, spreading the magic and kindness of Christmas.

Promising to be bigger and better than ever before and set in a magical winter wonderland setting, this year the tour will support FareShare, a UK charity focused on reducing hunger and food waste.

For each visitor, Coca-Cola will donate the equivalent of a meal, with a target of up to one million meals.

Florence Wheatley, Marketing Manager for Coca‑Cola Great Britain Coca‑Cola, said: “Coca‑Cola has and remains synonymous with Christmas, with many people eagerly awaiting the Coca‑Cola Christmas Truck Tour and Holidays Are Coming advert to create a little festive magic.

“This year, we’re delighted to continue our relationship with FareShare to support its mission to reduce hunger and surplus food waste. We hope that every person that attends the Truck Tour not only experiences the magic of Coca‑Cola Christmas, but also supports FareShare, knowing that the equivalent of a meal has been donated on their behalf, acting as a little moment of kindness to ensure that thousands of people across the country enjoy a more meaningful Christmas.”

Take a look at last year's experience in Belfast 👇

With the first airing of the much loved “Holidays Are Coming” ad often said to still signify the official start of Christmas, this year’s advert will launch with a special twist.

For the first time, Coca‑Cola will introduce an AI-generated reinterpretation of the classic advert, developed through a unique collaboration of human creativity and cutting-edge advanced technology to usher in the start of the Christmas season.

Last year the Christmas Truck stopped by Belfast’s Titanic Quarter - could this be this year's location?

Coca‑Cola haven't yet confirmed dates and locations for this year's Christmas Truck tour, they've teased fans to keep an eye on their socials over the coming weeks.

We'll keep you posted as soon as we know more!
