KFC is giving away free festive burgers this week, but there’s a catch
To celebrate the launch of its all-new festive menu items, the Stuffing Stacker Burger and Stuffing Tower Burger, KFC has created the first-ever ‘Sleigh Thru’.
At selected KFC restaurants in the UK, the first 50 customers to go through the ‘Sleigh Thru’ dressed as Santa Claus this week will receive a free Stuffing Stacker Burger.
Customers will have to pull out all the stops – a Santa hat alone won’t be enough – they will be expected to be in their best Christmas outfit.
However, if you’re not lucky enough to be among the first 50 hungry customers, don’t panic – the limited edition burgers are available on the Christmas menu both online and in-store.
The fried chicken chain has teamed up with football legend Chris Kamara, who has swapped his football boots for Santa boots to launch the festive experience.

Chris Kamara said: ‘Being Santa is hungry work, so KFC is coming to the rescue with its all-new Sleigh Thru experience, to satiate all the Saint Nicks out there with finger-licking good chicken!
“I was thrilled to channel my inner Kris Kringle to road test the first ever Sleigh Thru and try the epic new Stuffing Stacker Burger!
‘So, if you’re in the mood for some Christmas magic, put on your best Christmas gear and head to your nearest KFC Sleigh Thru to get your hands on the house’s limited edition Stuffing Stacker Burger.’
KFC drive-thrus have been given a festive facelift, decorated with finger-licking chicken decorations.
TThe Stuffing Stacker Burger is available from €7.99 and the Stuffing Tower Burger from €6.49.
Meanwhile, gravy lovers rejoice as KFC is also offering a limited edition Gravy Double Bucket for £23.99 and the Gravy Triple Bucket for £28.99.
The Sleigh Thru will be available at selected drive-thru restaurants: KFC Slough (Farnham Road), KFC Manchester (Trafford Retail Park), KFC Glasgow (Pollokshaws Road) and KFC Swansea (Morfa Shopping Park).
Locations in Slough, Manchester and Glasgow open on Tuesday 12 December and the Swansea location on Thursday 14 December, both from 12pm to 5pm.
The Sleigh Thru will only operate in select locations in the UK
Don’t panic if you don’t live near a Sleigh Thru, you can still get your hands on the festive burgers online or in-store at KFC
This comes after fans of the fried chicken restaurant hailed its stuffing burger as ‘next level’ after the brand shared its Christmas menu earlier this month.
The Stuffing Tower Burger consists of an original recipe for fillet with sage and onion filling, spicy cranberry sauce, cheese and burger dressing in a brioche bun.
Anyone who is particularly hungry and willing to consume a cathedral-sized burger can try the Stuffing Stacker burger, which contains an extra piece of chicken according to the original recipe.
Posting a video of him trying the burger for the first time on TikTok, Luis Corselli you can see him take a bite before exclaiming, “Oh my god! That’s unreal’.
Mr Corselli said the meal tasted ‘like a roast dinner’ and labeled it ‘next level’ in the caption of his clip.
