Coca-Cola Holiday Trucks Make 10 Denver-Area Stops Nov. 11 to 15, Return to Gaylord Rockies Dec. 28 to 31

By Big Rig Daily Staff

The Coca-Cola holiday trucks are rolling through Colorado this week, and somebody is driving them through holiday traffic. The Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan is making 10 stops around the Denver area from Nov. 11 through 15, according to 9News, with truck drivers steering the lit-up rigs.

Where it goes

Stops include Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Westminster, Parker, Arvada and more. On Friday, Nov. 13, the caravan is scheduled for Aurora at lunchtime and Parker later in the day.

It returns to Gaylord Rockies in Aurora from Dec. 28 through 31.

A long tradition

Coca-Cola says the caravan has been rolling across North America for decades. For many families, seeing the trucks marks the start of the holidays, and for children, a big rig covered in lights may be the best thing they see all season.

Schedules can change, so it is worth checking the company's caravan page before heading out.

Why it matters to truckers

The caravan is a holiday tradition built around trucks. Driving one means navigating holiday traffic in a rig lit up like a tree, with every phone in the lot pointed at it. Another festive load on the road this season is the Capitol Christmas Tree tour.
