With the Light Up Your Local campaign, Guinness is bringing dazzling Christmas light displays to local pubs and celebrating the important role they play in their communities. A handful of pubs have been selected as part of the campaign and they include spots like The Lock Tavern in Camden, The Queen’s Vaults in Cardiff and The Pickled Sprout in Harrogate.
Guinness donated £30 million towards keeping pubs, bars and restaurants open in 2021, and its holiday efforts help to keep the giving spirit going strong.
Additionally, the Guinness Pub Choir (which can be seen in this year's holiday ad from the brand) will be sharing special performances. Special tracks will be available to stream on Spotify, inspiring people to connect with one another over Christmas, especially at their favorite local pubs.
