The highly anticipated list of destinations for the iconic glittering red truck were accidentally leaked online before the page was quickly pulled.
Coca-Cola sparked excitement after telling fans on Twitter to look out for the official list of 46 stops.
The fizzy drinks company said all of the destinations would be revealed after its post hit 500 retweets.
But impatient fans couldn't wait and were quick to spread rumours about destinations, including Chester, Colwyn Bay and Newtown in Wales.
Destinations for the Cola-Cola truck tour include Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newquay, Gateshead, Middlesbrough, Cardiff, Liverpool, London, Manchester and Leeds.
Coca-Cola's classic "Holidays are Coming" ad was voted Britain's most memorable of all time last year.

The first Coca-Cola Christmas advert was in 1958, showing cartoon characters kissing under the mistletoe before drinking bottles of the fizzy drink.
The iconic red truck first appeared on TV screens in 1995 and has since become a regular feature of festive TV schedules in more than 100 countries.

Known as 'Christmas Caravans', the train of illuminated red lorries is seen by many as signifying the beginning of festivities.
The drinks giant's depiction of Santa Claus is thought to have played a major role in transforming the character into the jolly, big-bellied man we know and love today.
