Coca-Cola Christmas History
The History of Coca-Cola Christmas Truck
Believe it or not, the Coca-Cola Christmas truck first appeared on TV in 1995 and here’s a chance to watch the first-ever commercial (it’s still amazing!).
The Coca‑Cola Christmas trucks were created by the American advertising agency W.B. Doner, and the campaign was named internally as ‘Christmas Caravans’.
It’s also cool to know that the same company behind the Star Wars films made the lighting on the illuminated trucks for the original commercial.
By 1998, newer commercials featuring the Coca-Cola trucks were broadcast in over 100 countries.
The Coca-Cola 2024 TV Commercial
The latest 2024 Coca-Cola commercial is below.
This year, the ad was created using artificial intelligence!
This has caused controversy, mainly because Santa Claus doesn’t appear in the commercial!
Watch the 2024 Coca-Cola advert below and see what you think, but we don’t believe anything can beat the original commercial above.
More on the history of Coca-Cola and Christmas.
If you think Coca-Cola’s ties with Christmas are a modern invention, think again. It goes back to 1931. However, it’s not true that Coca-Cola is responsible for the red Santa Claus.
Many people mistakenly believe that the red Santa is the work of Haddon Sundblom, and his drawings of Santa that were created for Coca-Cola advertising in the early 1930s, but the red suit first appeared on the covers of the famous magazine Harper’s Weekly at least forty years before.
According to Wikipedia, the first appearance of a modern Santa Claus, complete with what we consider the defacto “Santa suit”, was created by Thomas Nast. Prior to this, Santa’s suit was tan-coloured!
The drawings created by Thomas Nast were of a small Santa who could slide down chimneys, but his later works made him full-size. In addition, Thomas Nast was also the first to draw Santa, wearing a red suit with fur lining, a nightcap, and a black belt with a large buckle.
Rather than taking the credit for our much loved modern-day Santa, Coca-Cola has publicly attributed the suit’s red colour to Nast’s earlier work. Still, we think it’s fair to say that the work by Haddon Sundblom and the advertising of Coca-Cola from 1931 onwards certainly “standardised” and made the fat red Santa in the red suit extremely famous.
