The collaborations extend to the music scene at Live Nation Canada music events. The KFC Zinger will be served at Live Nation Collab’s Budweiser stage during summer 2024 events.

Concertgoers will have the opportunity to buy the spicy flavours of KFC at Zinger-themed misting stations [outdoor humidification zones to cool the air] on select dates in July and August. 

Starting from 10 July, KFC will also offer Zinger-themed merchandise, including T-shirts, crewnecks and hats, all with designs that reflect the sandwich’s spicy character.  

KFC Canada chief marketing officer Katherine Bond-Debicki said: “KFC Canada is thrilled to celebrate the bold and crispy taste of our Zinger Sandwich and Hot Wings to spice lovers nationwide. 

“Our commitment to serving up craveable heat and unforgettable crunch shines through in these global favourites. With our fresh Zinger collaborations and merch, we are giving Canadians even more ways to savour and celebrate the spicy flavours they love.” 

In November 2023, KFC Canada expanded its holiday season menu with the addition of the KFC Festive range, featuring the KFC Festive Chicken Sandwich.
