Target takes holiday cheer (and Bullseye the dog!) from coast to coast with a cross Canada roadtrip
There are only six months between Canadians and freestanding Target stores, but to help make the waiting time go faster, Target will be heading out on a holiday 2012 road trip. The American retailer will be going from coast to coast while bringing holiday celebrations to more than 20 cities across Canada.
The road trip kicks off in Halifax, Nova Scotia at Dalhousie University on November 30 and will come to a close in British Colombia in mid-December. The first stop will feature guest performances, holiday treats (everybody’s favourite part) and even an opportunity to have your photo taken with Bullseye the dog who is, as you’d suspect, super cute. And that’s only a taste of what’s to come. You can follow the tour’s route on Twitter or Facebook to know if Target is headed to a town near you.
This may be Target’s first Canadian road trip, but it’s no stranger to hosting pop-ups. During the Toronto International Film Festival, Target took over a hotel and decked the rooms with bullseye themed pieces (and Bullseye the dog) and in February, the Jason Wu capsule collection popped up and created some shopping pandemonium in Toronto.
With store launch dates set in March and April of 2013 in 124 locations, it’s safe to say there’s a Target coming soon to a mall near you.
