18/5: Coca-Cola Olympic Torch Relay Pins

Thanks to the team at Coca-Cola, I'm able to show you some of the pins that will be available during the Olympic Torch Relay. All of these are retail pins that will be available from tomorrow along the Torch Really Route. I understand they will also be available at each day's Celebration Venue.





These seven pins show
  • Wenlock and the torch with the Torch Relay logo and Coca-Cola logo
  • a gold pin with a map of the UK, the torch and composite logos
  • a slider pin which moves between the start and end dates of the Torch Relay
  • 4 Coca-Cola vehicles used on the Torch Relay showcasing Move to the Beat and Future Flames.
The issue sizes are <=10,000 for the mascot pin, <=5,000 for the gold map pin, <=5,000 for the slider and <=2,012 for each vehicle.

On May 25th in Cardiff, along with the pins shown, a city exclusive pin will also be available for sale. In addition, four other key city pins will also be available on the route. More information and visuals of these 5 pins to come in the next week.

In total, there are 12 retail pins in the Coca-Cola Torch Relay range, the 7 shown and the 5 city pins.

There were no Coca-Cola pins available along the route on day one (and believe me I asked everyone I saw wearing a Coke uniform!) and only the gold one available in Plymouth at the evening celebrations.

Thanks for updating us. Doesn't sound like the reality matched what I was told late last week.

Anyone else able to comment as the relay progresses please?

A single coca cola wagon came through with the relay today in Frome, but it was impossible to even get any free promotional items let alone pins.

The same single wagon in Yeovil and all I saw them hand out sporadically were those funny tambourine things
