KFC brings the Bird to Birdsville
KFC are ‘Bringing the Bird to Birdsville’ in its latest campaign featuring their food truck bringing the chain’s fried chicken to the small Queensland town.
Created by Ogilvy, the 30 second commercial shows the truck during its recent visit to outback community’s Big Red Bash music festival earlier this year.
The 45 second spot is an extended version of the ad showing all the different people of the Queensland town including children, teenagers and adults, eating KFC.
Annabel Fribence, managing director for individual meals at KFC Australia, said: “Our mission was to remind all Australians of the great taste of our Original Recipe Chicken, a formula that’s remained unchanged since it was first created by Colonel Sanders himself.
“We know people often travel hundreds of kilometres to satisfy their KFC craving, so we thought we should return the favour.”

I have a feeling whoever did this video never saw an episode of Rawhide. Just saying.

What the hell does a song about cattle droving got to do with chicken?
I’ve never seen or heard of anyone rounding up chickens. Very poor choice. No more KFC for my family.

Hi Guys,
Was wondering if you were shooting another commercial in the Northern Territory?
