Coca-Cola is sharing the Christmas magic to bring friends and family together at the festival, free of charge.
Guests can book slots (2.00pm - 5.00pm and 6.30pm - 9.30pm) through the Coca-Cola Eventbrite.
Visitors will be able to enjoy a can of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar or Coca-Cola Original Taste as they have an exclusive family Christmas photo taken with the iconic Coca-Cola Christmas Truck.
Food will be available to purchase from food vendors on-site, with Coca-Cola donating a percentage of the value for every meal sold to their charity partners, FoodCloud (ROI) and FareShare (NI), part of Homeless Connect.
This year will see the return of Coca-Cola’s Christmas market vendors, where local crafts vendors will have bespoke Coca-Cola Christmas gifts at each event for purchase.
Irish-made Christmas cards, ornaments and wreaths will be available, along with handmade goods at both locations.
The local vendors appearing at the events for Dublin include Howrad Studios and FlowerPOP, and in the Titanic Quarter, Little Heart Belfast and The Flower Room Belfast, who will all be creating limited edition products for the event.
Guests will be serenaded by classic Christmas tunes we all know and love with live entertainment at each session.
Aisling Wilde, Frontline Activation Country Lead, Coca-Cola Ireland said: “Real Magic at Christmas takes place when we connect with one another.
"The past 12 months have made life uncertain for many across Ireland, but what we do know for sure is that ‘Christmas Always Finds Its Way’ no matter what shape it may take.
"At Christmas, everyone always comes around a table to connect and eat delicious food together– with a tasty Coca-Cola bringing real magic to your meal. We can’t wait to start spreading the Christmas spirit across the island of Ireland with the Coca-Cola Real Magic Christmas Experience.
"We’re also excited to help support talented local producers to be able to sell their goods at the two locations, with the festival bringing a sprinkling of real magic to consumers.
"In addition to this, it is important that we also reinforce our commitment to working towards zero waste by promoting recycling and donating to our charity partner”.
