Did you know that 15,000 bottles of all varieties of Coke is consumed every second and 66 million Americans alone are guzzling down a glass, bottle or can every 24 hours?
Just taste a little history of the world's most popular soft drink, invented by Dr. John Pemberton in 1886, and experience more than 100 years into the past by visiting all four self-guided Galleries; the Creating A Classic, The Pause That Refreshes, Every Day...Everywhere and The Real Thing.
Throughout these Galleries you will find more than 1,200 articles of memorabilia and artifacts, view vintage commercials spanning back 50 years, listen to all the original songs written for Coca-Cola, sample over 40 domestic and international beverages, and see a demonstration of the Soda Jerk and the bottling process, and the display on the evolution in product packaging and vending machines in person.
The World of Coca-Cola will also host private, evening events, birthday parties, business meetings, and conferences for those who want something a little more refreshing than the real
thing.
Shop at the World of Coca-Cola's retail store devoted only to "Everything Coca-Cola" located on the first level. The store features a collection of Coca-Cola brand merchandise, such as T-shirts, caps, jackets, dinnerware, vintage trays, glassware, lapel pins, polar bear toys, limited edition collectibles and more.
