Event Info
Coke Caravan is coming!
Spreading the spirit and magic of the season, the Coca-Cola Holiday Caravan will illuminate Lake Placid with the glow of 25,000 twinkling lights. The 18-wheeled semi-truck will light up the holidays at the Olympic venues during the World Cup Bobsled and Skeleton on December 16 and 17. Please join us in the excitement of watching World Class athletes speed down the tracks at over 70 miles per hour and in celebrating the holidays. Photos with Santa, the Coca-Cola polar bear, entertainment, prizes, food and drinks will be on hand. Please see schedule for more details!
