Cadbury, Merlin Entertainments and elvis unveil heartwarming campaign inspiring a little more generosity in the world

Multichannel campaign marks the first creative campaign for Cadbury’s Parents to Kids range in several years, which includes products such as Cadbury Dairy Milk Freddo and Little Bars

Cadbury has today launched a new multichannel campaign in partnership with Merlin Entertainments, with the aim of making it easier than ever for families to create lasting memories together. ‘Who will you take?’ was developed by creative agency elvis, as Cadbury and Merlin enter their ninth year of collaboration.

The campaign seeks to enhance the connection between Cadbury and young families by offering them the chance to enjoy magical days out together – and to share the joy with others, too. In partnership with Merlin Entertainments, families can access great value tickets to top UK attractions.

The activation is brought to life with a film spotlighting the inherent and heartwarming innocent generosity of children. The spot shows a young girl and her parents as she proudly presents her Cadbury Dairy Milk Little Bar to a ticket attendant at Alton Towers Resort. The attendant asks who they are taking with them, to which the little girl replies her neighbour, Mrs Wallace. The film then cuts to hilarious footage of the two unlikely friends having the time of their lives on the fast-paced rollercoaster Wicker Man.

Captured by Untold Studios, the film was shot at Alton Towers by cameras rigged onto the Wicker Man ride, to authentically document the genuine expressions of the cast.

The campaign is running across social and digital, radio, eCRM and on-pack. Media planning and buying is by Publicis Media.

Offering up to 50% off tickets to over 25 of the UK’s most iconic attractions – including Alton Towers Resort, Cadbury World, LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort, the London Eye, SEA LIFE Centres nationwide and more – there’s plenty of fun to go around. Consumers can visit the Who will you take? website to find out more.

Eloise Lake, Junior Brand Manager, Mondelez, said: “We’re excited to launch this new campaign which beautifully captures the innate generosity of children. It aims to resonate with families by highlighting how Cadbury can be a part of the cherished memories they create together, offering incredible savings on days out with our partners at Merlin Entertainments.”

Nick Brigden, Director of UK and Global Partnerships, Merlin Entertainments, said: “Cadbury and Merlin are a natural match as we both bring joy and create special memories. Who Will You Take? is more than a ticket offer, it’s a reward celebrating the magic of treating others and sharing unforgettable days out with the people who matter the most. We’re proud to welcome Cadbury customers into our world of fun and adventures for the ninth year running.”

Rob McEvoy, Creative Group Head, elvis, added: “We’re so quick to tell kids what to think, but we often forget just how weird and wonderful the way they think can be! We wanted to bring this to life in our film, showing the beauty of kids’ small yet impactful acts of generosity, and the heartwarming choices they make.”
