Visitors will also be able to make a stop at the Ho-Ho-Hoop hut and participate in a game for the chance to win a selection of prizes including meal-inspired rewards and recycled Christmas tree decorations.

Families will also get the opportunity to finish off the tour by posing for a memorable photo in front of the Coca-Cola truck. Guests are also welcome to listen to the Coca-Cola Christmas choir as they perform a set of classic carols.

The experience will also lead guests to the ‘Discover Your Inner Santa’ quiz, inspired by this year’s new The World Needs More Santas advert, which invites visitors to take the quiz and unlock their unique Santa personality to embrace and embody.

The quiz results in four impactful Santa archetypes, ‘The Thoughtful Santa’, ‘The Joyful Santa’, ‘The Generous Santa’, and ‘The Empathetic Santa’. The goal of the quiz is to inspire people to embrace their Santa archetype and the universal spirit of kindness, giving and friendship at Christmas, no matter how big or small.

Coca-Cola has partnered with Neighbourly, a platform that offers support to local communities across the UK. This year, Coca-Cola and Neighbourly will be supporting the local communities across cities the Coca-Cola Truck Tour will be visiting through a volunteering scheme and donation drive.

Those looking to donate to a local community supported by Coca-Cola and the Neighbourly Foundation can do this online or by using the QR code available at the Truck Tour. This initiative forms part of Coca-Cola’s ongoing support of Neighbourly through its partners Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, the bottlers who produce the drink, working together since 2020.

Brand manager at Coca-Cola Company, Great Britain, Florence Wheatley, said: “Coca-Cola has been spreading Christmas cheer for decades and, this year, we’ve added even more exciting elements to make it as magical and merry as possible. Alongside the beloved 'Holidays Are Coming' advert, we have introduced new elements like the 'World Needs More Santas' TVC and an interactive Santa Quiz.

The Christmas Truck Tour is a fantastic way to increase awareness of Neighbourly’s mission to help businesses build stronger communities. The partnership with Coca-Cola is about more than just festivities; it's about making a real difference.
