McDonald’s celebrates McRib return with traveling karaoke bus in LA & NYC

McDonald’s brought back the McRib nationwide on Tuesday, December 3. To celebrate its anticipated return, McDonald’s has created a unique experience for customers.

On December 7 and 8, McDonald’s will be unveiling the “McRib Caroloke Bus,” a traveling karaoke bus. The double-decker ride will have a karaoke display for the public to sing along to.

For those on the East Coast who wish to be part of the McRib and holiday celebration, the karaoke bus will be making its rounds in New York City on December 14 and 15.

Singer-songwriter Garcia, who will be entertaining fans on the bus, will also be offering McDonald’s fans a chance to join in on the cheer by connecting through her TikTok(ylonagarcia).

Though the McDonald’s McRib was added to their menu in 1981, it came and went for decades until it was eighty-sixed in 2022.

After plenty of customers demanded its return, McDonald’s added the McRib back to menusin the UK. And now, the US. “The McRib is more than a sandwich — it’s a part of culture, it’s a legend, it’s an event,” said Tariq Hassan, Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer at McDonald’s.
