The iconic Coca-Cola Christmas truck was introduced in 1995 and has been a festive favourite ever since

For many, the lead up to Christmas and all that comes with it is more enjoyable than the big day itself.

We’re now into November, which inevitably means that over the next couple of weeks Christmas adverts will start appearing on our screens. 

Certain adverts are synonymous with Christmas - but there is one in particular which, for many people, always stands out more than the rest. 

Once the Coca-Cola ‘holidays are coming’ advert hits our screens, the countdown to Christmas can officially begin.

Launched in 1995, the iconic advert has been a key part of Christmas culture here in the UK for nearly three decades. 

But unlike many festive adverts, the Christmas Coca-Cola advert is something that members of the public can experience in real-life. 

Each year, the famous Coca-Cola truck tours the country, bringing festive joy to thousands of people.

On October 23, the Coca-Cola GB X account told a keen fan: “This year’s plan for the Christmas Truck Tour will be revealed on our website over the next few weeks. 

“We would recommend that you keep checking the following link to see if we will be visiting your area. https://t.co/couV9GzVK3.”

Will it be visiting Nottingham?

The towns and cities due a visit from the truck are usually announced in stages in the lead up to Christmas.

Last year the first tour dates were announced on November 20, so it shouldn’t be too much longer before we learn where the truck will be stopping off first. 

Nottingham was last visited by the Coca-Cola truck in 2018, when it stopped at the Victoria Retail Park.
