Taco Bell UK Debuts Encore Hours, Catering to Late-Night Customers

— August 14, 2024 — Marketing
Taco Bell UK's Encore Hours initiative extends the operational hours of select QSR locations to cater to late-night music fans. Beginning at Taco Bell Wembley High Road from August 15th to August 20th, Enocore Hours will see participating restaurants remain open until 2 a.m. This move is designed to accommodate concert-goers who might otherwise have to choose between enjoying an encore performance and grabbing a late-night meal.

To celebrate the launch, Taco Bell is offering several promotions. The first 50 orders on the opening night will receive a limited-edition t-shirt, and the first 500 orders placed after 11 p.m. each night will include a complimentary Crunchy Taco. This initiative will also extend to additional locations in London and Brighton later in the year.

Consumers might be interested in Encore Hours due to the added convenience of late-night dining options near concert venues, allowing them to enjoy both their favorite music and Taco Bell’s offerings without compromise.
