Taco Bell is giving away delicious tacos around the world for free and UK fans can enjoy a bite of the action on 4th May thanks to the moon.

Around the world, the moon is known for its spiritual and emotional influences, but it can also affect people's appetite, especially when it looks like a taco during the quarter moon. 

Taco Bell is harnessing the moon’s unique power to look uncannily like a taco to offer everyone the chance to sink their teeth into the unmistakable crunch of a Taco Bell taco for free.

Rising just twice a month, the Taco Moon is set to appear from the 3rd May so grab your binoculars, dust off your telescope, or just stick your head out of the window and look up.

Anyone lucky enough to catch the giant silver taco in the sky will score a free taco the following day. Easy.

Taco Moon gazers (anyone) simply have to visit their local Taco Bell restaurant, and a free delicious taco is theirs - available at all 55 restaurants nationwide.

Gino Casciani, general manager at Taco Bell UK & Europe added, “We’re excited to kick-off Taco Bell’s first ever global campaign, using the world’s biggest billboard as our storyteller - the moon. Once people see the moon as a taco, they’ll find it hard to see it any other way again.

Bournemouth Echo:

Taco Bell think the moon looks like a taco as it rises twice a month so are giving away free tacos next month (Taco Bell/Last Minute.com).

"In fact, we’re transforming iconic sites across the UK into tacos to celebrate the nationwide and global giveaway including the London Eye. We hope that Brits fall in love with our iconic crunchy tacos and can’t wait to welcome tacos fans through our doors on 4th May.”
