The popular soft drinks company Coca-Cola has unveiled a series of new dates as its Christmas truck makes its way across the UK.

The Coca-Cola Christmas truck is a holiday staple and first made its appearance when it hit our TV screens in 1995.

The truck has since become a fixture of TV and of the holiday season in more than 100 countries around the globe.

The tour started in late November in Kent before it made its way to Beckton, Glasgow, London, Manchester, Bristol, Bradford, Cardiff, and Leeds.

However, new dates have been unveiled by the food and drinks giant.

New Coca-Cola Christmas Truck dates revealed

While the truck recently made its way to Wolverhampton on Thursday, December 8 as well as Coventry, Sheffield, Leeds, and Watford, new dates have been revealed.

The newly announced dates are as follows:

  • December 11 and 12

The famous truck will make its way to Manchester on December 11 and 12, Baldock in North Hertfordshire, and the village of East Leake in Nottinghamshire on December 11 and 12 respectively.

Coca-Cola teases the return of the Christmas truck on Twitter

Previously, the company teased the return of the truck on Twitter when it replied to a tweet by a fan asking: "Is the holiday truck, coming this year?"

Coca-Cola rather mysteriously said: "Christmas is coming but is the truck tour? You will have to watch this space" before dates were announced weeks later.
