This Jurassic Park commercial is quite funny. The premise: what if the original Jurassic Park actually worked?

Christmas Commercials 2025

Barbour & Aardman

I look forward each year to the wild and crazy Christmas commercials that retailers have created. They are sometimes fun, and sweet, and poignant, but always a delightful Christmas treat.

This first video is from Barbour, who has partnered with Aardman once again for a Wallace and Gromit commercial that is absolutely hilarious.

Asda shows how the Grinch would feel if he had to go shopping for Christmas this year.

Dawn French is back once again (as herself and the Christmas fairy) for Marks & Spencer. This year, she's "traffic jamming."

Waitrose's "The Perfect Gift" is long for an ad, but absolutely hilarious! This mini romcom between a very unexpected couple had us cracking up.

Sainsbury's brought the BFG back again this year for another Christmas adventure. 

Aldi has returned once again to the story of Kevin the Carrot with three short ads inspired by Love Actually. This year, Kevin makes a very special proposal.

But will he make it to the wedding?

Of course, there's a happy ending.

Chevy's "Memory Lane" commercial is surprisingly sweet.

Erste Bank has a beautiful new "believe" ad. This year's theme is "believe in yourself."

And finally, Capital One brought back John Travolta as Santa for "Greased Sleigh-Ridin".

DisneyPlus Big Game Spot

Disney

The latest ad for DisneyPlus is quite fun. What if none of our favorite stories existed? But, thankfully, they do!

Christmas Commercials 2024

Kroger

It's my favorite time of year again: the time to watch delightfully creative Christmas ads. There are so many amazing Christmas commercials every year that it's hard to know which to enjoy first. This first commercial is from Kroger. It celebrates the wisdom and kindness of a child.

In this ad from John Lewis, a woman goes on a trip through her past to find the perfect gift.

Aldi's Kevin the Carrot is back to save the Festive Spirit.

Barbour has once again partnered with Aardman's Shaun the Sheep for their Christmas ad.

This ad from Chevy isn't really about Christmas, but about family.

And Sainsbury's helped the BFG find the perfect Christmas feast.

Etsy used Where's Waldo to show that there's a perfect gift for everyone.

Waitrose had a two-part, mystery themed advert this year. First up, the crime...

and then the solution of who stole the Christmas pudding, er, "chilled dessert".

Asda shared a gnome-y story of Christmas helpers.

Tesco's ad sees a world made of gingerbread and Christmas memories.

And finally, Amazon's ad shows how dreams can come true, with a little help from your friends.

Christmas Commercials 2023

Lidl

It's time for another roundup of sappy, happy Christmas commercials. There were so many good ones this year! I do love the creativity that goes into these holidays advertisements.

Lidl always has cute Christmas commercials. This one features a raccoon who goes to extraordinary lengths to save one little boy's Christmas.

The Marks & Spencer fairy (Dawn French) is back again this year. This time, she's rescued a pair of very familiar sounding mittens from the snow. (Yes, that's Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.)

Amazon's "Joy Ride" ad shows three old friends who decide to revisit their youth.

This year's Barbour ad stars Shaun the Sheep and his pals as they try to fix up the Farmer's coat for Christmas.

This John Lewis ad is quite unique. It's the story of Snapper, a most unusual, and unexpected, Christmas tree.

Two different ads this year have kids who wonder what Santa would like for Christmas. The first is from Macy's.

And this hilarious adventure is from Boots.

This Tesco ad is a bit crazy, but I guess that's one way to "become more Christmas."

Aldi brought back Kevin the Carrot this year, but with a special Willy Wonka-esque twist.

Coca-Cola reminds us that anyone can be Santa Claus.

And finally, John Travolta appears as Santa Claus in this holiday spin on Saturday Night Fever from Capital One.

So, which one is your favorite?

This Holiday Ad Is Beautiful

Chevrolet

I love the ads that arrive each year at Christmas. And the ones that make you cry happy tears are my favorite. This new ad from Chevy is just beautiful.

Just One More Christmas Commercial

Homebase

Escape to the Château is one of my favorite home decorating shows. I especially look forward to seeing the Christmas episodes every year. This year, Dick and Angel Strawbridge, the couple behind the fabulous show, are part of a hilarious ad for Homebase, a British home goods store. 

They make decorating for Christmas look so easy!

More Delightful Christmas Commercials

Erste Group

I am ridiculously fond of super sappy Christmas commercials that tug at the heartstrings, even when they don't say a word. Here are a few more lovely commercials from this holiday season. 

The Erste Group reminds us to "believe in tomorrow" in this sweet commercial.

You're never too old for an imaginary friend, as the girl in this UK McDonald's commercial learns.

Accidents happen, but maybe we should see them as unexpected opportunities. That's what two young girls discover in this Chik-Fil-A ad.

In this ad from Boots, Joy discovers the delight of a Mary Poppins style bag of practically perfect presents to share.

And finally, one more sweet ad from 2018 from Erste Group, "What would Christmas be without love?"

Aldi

It's that time of year again! Time for weird and wonderful Christmas commercials, mostly from the UK.

Aldi has another tale starring Kevin the Carrot. This time he's taking on Ebanana Scrooge in A Christmas Carol. 

John Lewis has an interesting take on Christmas this year. Young Nathan discovers Skye has unexpectedly crashed landed on Earth, so of course he has to teach her about Christmas. 

Barbour is celebrating Christmas with the ever adorable Paddington Bear.

Coca-Cola has a delightful commercial about the magic of chimneys.

I'm sure there will be more wonderful commercials before Christmas this year, but at least we're off to a good start.

Hyundai And Marvel Question Everything

Hyundai/Marvel

The latest Hyundai Tucson ads are fantastic. Their "question everything" campaign has recently extended to include characters from Marvel's DisneyPlus series.

First up, a 1950s era Wanda asks, "Why is it the golden age of television if it's all in black and white?"

Next, Sam Wilson's Captain America asks, "Why do we say 'heads up' when we really mean duck?"

And finally, an escaped Loki asks, "If you're living on borrowed time, do you have to return it?" All episodes of WandaVision, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and Loki are now on DisneyPlus.

These WandaVision Commercials Are So Intriguing

Disney

WandaVision has the most interesting commercials. First up is an ad for a Toast Mate 2000 made by Stark Industries.

The second ad is for a Strucker watch.

And the third ad is for Hydra Soak.

I wonder what clues the next commercial break will provide.

More Christmas Commercials To Cheer The Heart

I really am addicted to Christmas commercials. It seems like there are more and more fantastic ads each year. Here are a few more of this year's favorites.

This commercial from Very is very sweet.

Poor Father Christmas! At least his coat is reliable and the animation is adorable. 

Even Santa deserves a special treat at Christmas.

Everyone can be part of the magic of Christmas.

I love that so many of these commercials are about coming together to share joy at Christmas.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all see the world through a child's eyes?

These Christmas Commercials Will Really Put You In The Spirit

Aardman Animation

I absolutely love Christmas commercials! The sappy ones that require several tissues, the adorable animated ones, and the ones that make you laugh out loud, I love them all. This year, I've found a few fantastic commercials to share with you. Hopefully, they'll bring a smile to your face, too.

This first commercial features my favorite claymation duo from Aardman Animation. Wallace and Gromit make for a cracking good commercial.

The next commercial features a Tesco delivery van that takes an unexpected journey through time.

This advert from John Lewis & Partners reminds me of one of my favorite Christmas songs, "Darcy the Dragon".

"Some gifts are more than just a gift."

Toyota's New Home for the Holidays Commercial is Beautiful

Toyota

I saw Toyota's new "Home for the Holidays" commercial last night and I have to say, it made me cry. I love Christmas commercials that tug at the heart strings and this one does so beautifully.

Duracell How the Rebels Saved Christmas

Duracell/Lucasfilm

I adore this Duracell Christmas commercial. The kids pretending to be Rebels from Rogue One delivering Christmas joy to a child in the hospital are just too cute. It makes me smile every time I see it.
