Coca Cola Truck is coming back to MK

Friday, 4 November 2016 18:33

For many, Christmas doesn’t start until the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck appears on our television screens and in our towns.

This year the popular Coca-Cola Christmas Truck Tour will be returning to Milton Keynes on Sunday 27th of November at Xscape, giving families the chance to get closer to the magic.

What happens on the truck tour?

On your visit you'll have the chance to wander through an enchanted winter wonderland, before having your photo taken with the iconic truck.

The Coca Cola team will then hand you a free, perfectly served 150ml can of Coca-Cola, Diet Coke or new and improved Coca-Cola Zero Sugar. Once the sun has set, you'll be invited to enjoy an incredible after-dark surprise as we screen a short Christmas animation onto the truck, powered by your goodwill and festive cheer! The Truck will be in MK between 1 and 9pm.

Don't worry if you can't make it, as the truck will also be visiting Twitter this year. From 4th November, when you tweet #holidaysarecoming a special truck-related treat will appear on your post. Give it a go, and tag @CocaCola_GB to show us your excitement!

“Coca-Cola is synonymous with the Christmas season and it’s no secret that our much-loved Christmas Truck Tour marks the unofficial countdown to Christmas," said Aedamar Howlett, marketing director for Coca-Cola Great Britain.

The Coca-Cola Christmas Truck Tour finishes on 23rd December.
