The arrival of the festive season is officially marked for many Brits by the sight of the iconic red Coca-Cola Christmas Truck, and the company has just announced its triumphant return for a special 2025 tour.
A Milestone Anniversary Tour
This year holds extra significance as the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck Tour celebrates its 15th anniversary in the United Kingdom. To commemorate this milestone, the tour will visit 15 different locations across the country, bringing its unique brand of holiday magic to communities.
At each stop, the famous vehicle will be transformed into a dazzling winter spectacle, complete with twinkling lights that create the perfect backdrop for festive photographs and family memories. Visitors can look forward to festive games, opportunities to win exclusive Coca-Cola merchandise, and the chance to enjoy an ice-cold Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, or Coke Zero.
Spreading Festive Cheer and Support
In a continued demonstration of seasonal goodwill, Coca-Cola is renewing its partnership with FareShare, the UK's leading food redistribution charity. The company will make a direct donation equivalent to one million meals to support the charity's vital work in getting surplus food to those in need.
A further initiative will see Coca-Cola team up with Tesco. For every Tesco Festive Meal Deal purchased with any 500ml Coca-Cola Original Taste, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, or Diet Coke (including flavoured varieties), a further 20p will be donated to FareShare.
Graham Kelly, Head of Fundraising at FareShare, emphasised the impact of this support, stating it is instrumental in strengthening communities across the UK. The charity currently supplies food to over 8,000 organisations, from community lunch clubs to homelessness shelters.
How to Find the 2025 Tour Stops
Following its recent marketing strategy, Coca-Cola will not release the full list of tour locations all at once. Instead, the company will reveal the full schedule of stops in the coming weeks via its official Instagram channel, @Cocacolagbi.
This approach builds anticipation and encourages followers to regularly check the social media platform for updates on whether the beloved truck will be making a stop near them. The 2024 tour welcomed over 53,000 attendees, and similar crowds are expected for this special anniversary year.
