For many, the festive season doesn’t begin until the Coca-Cola ‘Holidays Are Coming’ advert airs across TV screens; and this year, the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck will pay a special visit to Northern Ireland with a stop planned for the Belfast SSE Arena on Wednesday 16 December 2015.

The famously festive Coca-Cola Christmas Truck will stop off in Belfast from 12 – 8pm and in addition to seeing it up close, crowds will be entertained throughout the experience with a variety of games including giant ‘ice-block jenga’ and festive ‘pass the parcel’. Families will also have the opportunity to capture a photo souvenir with the truck as it lights up in a winter wonderland setting while enjoying a choice of Coca-Cola or Diet Coke.

Georgina Kendrick, Christmas Brand Manager, Coca-Cola Ireland said: “We’re delighted to celebrate the Christmas season this year with a visit of the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck to Belfast.  With games, music, photography and more, we hope to offer a really special Christmas experience that you won’t want to miss.”

Ever since the Coca-Cola Christmas truck first appeared on screens in November 1995, it has become a regular feature of festive TV schedules in more than 100 different countries. It is universally recognised as a personal countdown to Christmas. In addition to the much-loved advert featuring the Christmas Truck, Coca-Cola will also air its ‘Give a Little Happiness’ TV advert, encouraging people to spread festive cheer throughout the holiday season.

Coca-Cola is also offering limited edition Christmas ‘bow bottles’ on 1.75l bottles, with a clever label that can transform into a beautiful Christmas bow – available in all major supermarkets.
