Coca-Cola unveils collectible mini cans for America's 250th birthday

Coca-Cola is going all out for America's 250th birthday.

The Atlanta-based beverage company, like the country itself, is gearing up to celebrate close to three centuries of independence this July 4 with the release of America250 collectible mini cans.

From Georgia’s peach to California’s surfer culture, each mini-can "highlights iconic local symbols" of each one of the 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia.

According to the Coca-Cola Company, the America250 packaging also connects consumers to "interactive experiences."

The campaign is anchored by "Drink in America," a new creative anthem that celebrates the spirit of American communities.

"For nearly 140 years, Coca‑Cola has been part of the American experience," Stacy Jackson, Vice President of Coca‑Cola Trademark, North America, said in a statement. "... Our goal is to uplift Americans throughout every zip code and create optimism for the future."

Here's what to know about Coca-Cola's collectible America250 mini cans, including where to get them.

Where to get Coca-Cola's collectible America250 mini cans

Coca-Cola has dubbed the new collection of limited-edition America250 packaging, which includes custom bottles and America250 collectible mini cans, "the center of the celebration."

Each mini can features a design "unique" to each one of the 50 states, plus Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia.

Fans can unlock prizes and rewards, including the opportunity to win a new Jeep and other experiences inspired by exploring the country, by scanning participating products with America250 packaging.

Additional Coca-Cola brands like Vitaminwater, Smartwater, BodyArmor, and Gold Peak will also don commemorative packaging.

According to the Coca-Cola Company, the collectible mini cans will be available for purchase at major retailers, including Walmart and Target nationwide, starting this month. In addition to the minicans, Coca-Cola also plans to roll out custom bottles.

Coca-Cola confirmed to USA TODAY that regular Coke, Coke Zero and Diet Coke will have the America250 artwork on the minicans.

How Coca-Cola is keeping party going

In addition to limited-edition packaging and "creative storytelling," the America250 signature partner plans to rack up 250,000 volunteer hours in 2026 and will be launching "Paint the Nation," a large-scale public art initiative.

Coca-Cola will keep the celebration going throughout 2026, with "brand presence" at major events, including the NASCAR Coca‑Cola 600 and the PGA Tour Championship.

According to the Coca-Cola Company, the "collaboration reflects both the Company’s deep roots in American culture and its ongoing commitment to bringing people together in meaningful ways."
