2021 Holiday Ad Campaign Wrap Up

November 19, 2021

With supply chain issues delaying how soon products can be delivered, brands have been rolling out holiday campaigns earlier than normal this year to encourage consumers to make their purchases sooner. Here are some of our favorite 2021 holiday ad campaigns.

Amazon’s latest holiday campaign debuts Adele’s new song, ‘Hold On,’ from her highly anticipated new album. The ad follows the story of a woman befriending her neighbor while struggling to adjust to the new normal since the beginning of the pandemic. 

Learning from their past mistakes, Peloton decided to create a humorous adaptation of a classic for their 2021 holiday campaign. The ad tells the story of how A Christmas Carol’s Ebenezer Scrooge finds holiday joy through exercising on his Peloton bike. 

Coke’s ‘Real Magic’ campaign embraces community and closeness after over a year of social distancing. The ad follows a young boy who brings his community together by creating a cardboard chimney for his neighborhood to deliver presents to each other.

Macy's introduces a blue reindeer named Tiptoe to their latest holiday ad. Initially afraid to fly, Tiptoe overcomes her fear with the help of her friends. In the 2021 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, Tiptoe will make an appearance as an animated balloon. Plush dolls of the reindeer will be donated to local charities and Make-A-Wish.

For Chase Bank’s first ever holiday ad, they decided to pay homage to the classic Christmas movie, Home Alone. Catherine O’Hara returns as a distressed Kate McAllister, frantically searching for her missing son, Kevin. She instead runs into Kevin Hart, who is out Christmas shopping.

Grocery giant Aldi puts their spin on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in their 2021 holiday ad titled, “A Christmas Carrot.” The ad stars Ebanana Scrooge, who is greeted by the Spirit of Christmas and learns about the true meaning of the holiday season.
