Christmas commercials from around the globe are frequently seen as the official start of the holiday season. I mean, it isn’t like we don’t have plenty of commercials, but you know when you see that first Christmas advertisement from a particular place that the season really is upon us.
In the U.K., In the U.K., audiences look forward to the Sainsbury Christmas commercials that come out, and there is always a big write-up about the ad the next day in all the papers. In America, the most famous and popular Christmas ads star some of the most world-renowned animals – the Budweiser Clydesdales.
Budweiser’s Christmas ads typically focus less on the product and more on the brand’s history and the sense of family connected to it. And, of course, the Clydesdales. There is something about the Christmas season that almost demands the presence of these beautiful horses.
Huge, furry-hooved horses; carting behind them, through the snow, the beloved stagecoach. They train for years to be a Budweiser Clydesdale, and each horse is distinctly proud of where they are and the job they are doing.
In this nostalgic Christmas commercial from 1987, the Clydesdales are delivering a massive, flawless Christmas tree to town—the absolute best one, in fact. Who better to deliver it, right? The message: Budweiser wishes only the best for the Christmas season. Don’t miss this sweet and almost regal Christmas advertisement from Budweiser in the video below. Cheers.
