If the first snowfall didn't already put you in holiday mode, the Coca-Cola Christmas Caravan should do the trick. The iconic, glowing red truck is touring across Canada again this year, with several Montreal-area stops scheduled over the next few weeks.
Just like the CPKC holiday train rolling through town this month, the festive caravan is hard to miss. It includes lights, music, colourful displays, a full holiday photo setup, and free drinks. Meanwhile, Santa Claus himself — the Coca-Cola version — is also making appearances throughout the tour.
With hundreds of stops scheduled to occur throughout North America, here's where you can see it around Montreal.
