We remember when it came in 2014, some of our members went to see it - and loved it, really festive - let’s bring it back to Preston 🎅 ❤️
PRESTON, LET’S MAKE SOME NOISE - JOIN OUR CAMPAIGN TO BRING THE ICONIC COCA-COLA CHRISTMAS TRUCK BACK TO PRESTON CITY CENTRE!
For the first time ever, people across the country can help shape where the iconic Coca-Cola Christmas Truck takes its festive magic!
The famous red truck brought festive magic, excitement and a huge fantastic atmosphere to Preston in 2014, attracting large crowds into the city centre and giving people another brilliant reason to come together and celebrate the most wonderful time of the year.
Now, the call is going out to residents, businesses and families to get behind the campaign, cast their votes and show Coca-Cola just how much Preston wants the Christmas truck back.
