Not all holiday advertising is candlelight and mistletoe. This week’s ads remind us just how many end-of-year advertising playbooks are in circulation these days.

Today, we’re putting out our first AdLand PSA: It’s been a big year of rebuilding for our little creative community, and we’re excited for everything that’s in store for AdLand in 2026 and beyond. We’re gearing up for a big Super Bowl ads push next month, and we want you to be a part of it! So, send us those campaigns. And, most importantly, follow us on Instagram! You’ll be seeing a lot more AdLand action there in the coming weeks.

Marketecture Live: Consumers in Control Speaker Announcement

Marketecture Live is designed for the doers building what comes next and the thinkers shaping how it all works. We’ve announced our first slate of featured speakers, with more to be announced in the coming weeks.

Early Bird pricing ends January 6, 2026: secure your tickets now before rates go up.

Canadians love gravy, but this is getting ridiculous. Sick of that ol’ dry holiday turkey? Make it pizza-ier!

It feels good to give lavish gifts to the ones we love. But what if that loved one pisses you off later? Zales has it covered with its holiday repossession contract.

If the Zales campaign left you feeling less than warm and fuzzy, check out Klick Health’s holiday campaign, which reminds us that there’s more to life than all those packages under the tree.

Thanks for being here. We’re so glad you stopped by. Want to submit a campaign to AdLand? We’re here for it!

Did you know that AdLand is a part of the broader Marketecture Media family? It’s true. And if you want to give yourself or your advertising colleagues the gift that keeps on giving (until March, that is), then consider a ticket to Marketecture Live III, March 10-11, 2026.

Twice the show. Twice the attendees. Right now, at a very festive Early Bird rate. See you there!
