WHEN DOES THE JOHN LEWIS CHRISTMAS ADVERT AIR? John Lewis hasn't yet announced when its Christmas advert for 2018 will be dropping. The British retailer is expected to be releasing


their festive campaign soon. The John Lewis Christmas advert could be dropping this week and hit social media at the same time as TV. In 2017 John Lewis unveiled its Christmas advert on


November 10, so going by this it could be as soon as this Friday (November 9). On top of that, a short snippet purporting to be from this year’s John Lewis Christmas advert surfaced on


Twitter. The short clip posted on the social media platform showed a Christmas tree covered in baubles as the camera panned across to a figure playing the piano. Sir Elton John’s opening


bars of Rocket Man could be heard. CHRISTMAS ADVERTS 2018: JOHN LEWIS TO ALDI If the footage is authentic, this year’s advert could feature the singing legend or at the very least the song

of pop songs as the soundtrack to its Christmas adverts in recent years with hits including Keane’s Somewhere Only We Know, Randy Crawford’s One Day I’ll Fly Away, and Frankie Goes To
