KFC Canada Unveiled a Bucket Lid that Play Christmas Carols

— December 8, 2024 — Marketing
KFC Canada has introduced a unique holiday item: a bucket lid that functions as a playable music record. This new 'Kentucky Fried Carols' album features four well-known Christmas carols, creatively incorporating sounds associated with the KFC brand, such as the noise of chicken frying. This release is inspired by the brand's past holiday music offerings, including Colonel Sanders' KFC holiday albums from the 1960s.

In this collection, the "classic carols We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Jingle Bells, Deck the Halls, and The Twelve Days of Christmas are given a KFC twist, featuring distinctive sounds like the KFC fryer and wrapping paper."

To make this offering even more exciting, a random draw will select Instagram followers of KFC Canada to receive a limited-edition collectible. Ultimately, this initiative aims to enhance the holiday dining experience by combining festive music with the tradition of sharing a KFC meal.
