Starting Dec. 7, World of Coca-Cola will debut a brand-new holiday pop-up!
The first-ever Coca-Cola Holiday Express – a new railcar experience hosted in partnership with Georgia Aquarium - will be open Saturdays and Sundays in December. The pop-up expands upon the traditional holiday celebration hosted in Pemberton Place Park and celebrates Coca-Cola icons (like the famed Coca-Cola Polar Bear!), taking visitors on an immersive journey to the North and South poles!
Experience the Coca-Cola Holiday Express:
- After visiting World of Coca-Cola, guests will step into the festive Pemberton Place Park, where they’ll be granted access to the train.
- Visitors will board the first holiday railcar, adorned with plush velvet accents and twinkling lights, as they embark on a magical journey to the North Pole. A festive photo opportunity in Santa’s cozy corner awaits!
- The next railcar transports guests through the sun-soaked Southern Hemisphere, offering a tropical twist on holiday festivities. Guests can enjoy scenes of beaches and palm trees wrapped in festive lights, along with unique photo opportunities featuring an iconic Coca-Cola surfboard and a vibrant mural of Santa catching waves.
“We're thrilled to partner with Georgia Aquarium to bring Coca-Cola’s renowned holiday magic to life,” said Michelle Moorehead, Global Vice President, Licensing and Retail, The Coca-Cola Company. "The Coca-Cola Holiday Express railcar experience offers an awesome opportunity for both locals and visitors to enjoy the festive atmosphere at World of Coca-Cola. It's all about creating special moments with friends and family during the holiday season in a truly unique setting."
In addition to snapping photos by larger-than-life ornaments in the park, sipping festive beverages in World of Coca-Cola throughout the season and meeting Santa on Dec. 21 with the Coca-Cola Caravan tour, guests can relish the holiday magic on the Coca-Cola Holiday Express from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 7 through Dec. 29. Individuals who purchase a ticket to Pemberton Place attractions, including World of Coca-Cola, Georgia Aquarium and National Center for Civil Human Rights, will gain access to the railcar experience on a first come, first serve basis. Those who purchase same-day general admission tickets to both World of Coca-Cola and Georgia Aquarium will get to “skip the line” and reserve a spot online using a QR code at the ticket booth in the park.
