#cadvent

Let’s be real here; if you’re not eating chocolate for breakfast on the morning of December 25, you’re doing it wrong.

Christmas and chocolate always have, and always will, go hand in hand, so we are pumped by the launch of this year’s Cadbury’s CADVENT campaign.

The good folk at the wonder emporium that is Cadbury wants everyone to do their bit to spread the festive spirit this year, and that is where you guys come in.

So, how does it work exactly?

Every person that tweets using #Cadvent during the month of December will help to push the dial on the giant Cadbury Joy-o-Meter, revealing a new prize to be given away each day in the countdown to Christmas.

And that’s not all!

The Cadbury Christmas Parades will be the highlight of this year’s Cadvent celebrations, travelling around the country and making three very special appearances in local towns throughout the month of December.

The parades will tell the story of a young child’s dream that takes him on a magical journey to meet the Master of Joy. The story will be brought to life with a wonderful array of wacky floats, novel characters and creative entertainment that brings to life the magic of Christmas through a child’s eyes.

Always wanted to visit Lapland at Christmas? This year, Cadbury can get you there (almost)!

The Cadbury Cadventure Experience will be popping up at locations across the country to give people the chance to take a ride on Santa’s sleigh through snowy Lapland to help him deliver presents on Christmas Eve.

Ladies, it’s time to take your turn on the sleigh and receive a video of the special experience to take home and keep as a once in a lifetime Christmas memory.

Cadbury Cadvent ambassador and former Westlife sensation Kian Egan is almost excited as us, saying: “I am delighted to be on board with Cadvent this year.”

“Cadbury have loads of great family activities planned for the month of December which will help to get everyone into the Christmas spirit. I can’t wait for the first parade in Dublin; it sounds like it’s going to be amazing.”

Here are all the deets you need.

There are a few things we associate with Christmas every year – our first selection box, a treat-filled advent calendar and of course, the annual tub of Cadbury Roses.

Anyone with a sweet tooth knows that the festive season and chocolate go hand in hand, and with that in mind Cadbury has some VERY special treats in store this year.

The Cadbury Christmas #Cadvent kicked off at the start of this week, with the chocolate giant sending its signature purple trucks all over the country to spread the festive joy.

Between now and December 23, the trucks will visit a different location each day. As well as free chocolate (!) there wil be tonnes of surprise events scheduled – everything from Christmas tree deliveries and pop-up concerts to giant cracker pulls.
