Does it even feel like Christmas if you don’t see the Christmas Coca Cola Truck advert?
I know Christmas seems to start early every year, but somehow Coca Cola smashes it and launch its advert at precisely the right time when “Holidays Are Coming”.
Along with the advert, we get to experience the real magic Christmas truck tour.
A total favourite with adults and kids, you get to see the truck in real life for free all over the UK.
Why visit the Coca Cola Truck?
There are a few reasons you’d want to visit and see the truck with your own eyes.
First up, it’s a free day out and something festive to do with the kids.
They give out FREE samples of Coca Cola while you’re visiting.
Also, you can take photos and selfies with the truck, making lovely memories.
Coca-Cola Great Britain is donating the equivalent of 100,000 meals to Fareshare to be passed onto those in need throughout the festive season for everyone who visits the truck too.
Coca Cola Truck tour dates 2022
They plan to stop off in as many places across Scotland, Wales and England as possible, and dates and locations will be released over a few weeks.
In early November, Coca-Cola shared a message on Twitter telling us to “watch this space”.
The Coca-Cola Christmas advert is due to hit screens at the end of November. As soon as that airs, we will get full details of the tour.
Full details for the Coca-Cola truck 2022 are slowly being released, and we’re finding out details as they come…see below!

FAQs
When did the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck advert first come out?
The now very famous Christmas Truck, with Santa on the side, first hit our TV screens in the winter of 1995.
Although, the advert has changed a little over the years.
Is the Coca-Cola Truck real?
Three real trucks were created for the filming of the first advert back in 1995 (and more were added using special effects).
Can I buy a Coca Cola Truck?
While you won’t be able to buy a full-size truck (cause, come on, where would you even keep it?!), you can get miniatures.
This 1:43 scale model has LEDs that light up (check the latest price)
Did Coca-Cola invent the red Santa?
Santa has had many depictions over time.
In 1931, an illustrator was commissioned to create a painting of Santa Claus for a Cole advertising campaign.
It’s here that he made Santa wear a red jacket. He didn’t make it red on purpose to match Coca-Cola’s colours; it’s simply how the artist painted it.
