Client Summary

Coca-Cola has always been more than a beverage. It’s a cultural icon. It’s synonymous with joy, connection, and timeless holiday traditions. For the Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan, the brand wanted to go beyond spectacle and create an activation that felt personal. Shareable. Lasting.

By partnering with MoZeus and SALT XC, Coca-Cola brought its festive fleet to life with a one-of-a-kind retail activation designed to make consumers part of the story..

Challenge

While the Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan is a beloved tradition, Coca-Cola wanted to ensure it evolved with today’s consumers. Families were looking for more than a quick photo op. They wanted memorable experiences worth sharing. The challenge to us was how to modernize a decades-old holiday marketing activation while staying true to Coca-Cola’s brand heritage.

The brand also needed a solution that could scale across multiple cities, securely capture first-party data, and deliver an authentic connection between Coca-Cola and the people who love it.

Our Solution

We teamed up with SALT XC to create a turnkey solution that fused holiday nostalgia with digital innovation. The Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan rolled into towns nationwide, offering attendees personalized interactions powered by cutting-edge event technology for custom brand keepsakes.

  • Custom Can Printing – Guests had their photo printed directly onto a Coca-Cola can, transforming a sip into a sentimental souvenir.
  • Santa Photo Experience – Families posed with Santa and left with custom postcards, perfectly balancing tradition with tech and using technology to enhance holiday traditions.
  • Seamless Registration – A branded microsite for event registration and data capture powered the experience while ensuring a frictionless flow onsite.
  • Scalable Nationwide Impact – From small towns to bustling cities, the Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan made it possible to engage thousands of families in a consistent, joyful way.
