Skittles flips Super Bowl advertising on its head with “Deliver the Rainbow,” ditching a traditional in-game TV spot in favor of a live, real-world commercial starring Elijah Wood. Instead of airing on screens nationwide, the brand stages its Big Game moment at one lucky fan’s front door, powered by on-demand delivery partner Gopuff. On Sunday, February 8, 2026, the selected winner opens their door to find Wood performing the Skittles Super Bowl ad live — candy, chaos, and all — creating a one-of-a-kind experience that can’t be paused, skipped, muted, or replayed. By turning the Super Bowl commercial into a physical event, Skittles leans hard into surprise, absurdity, and cultural disruption, making the ad itself as unpredictable as the brand.

Does Skittles skipping a traditional Super Bowl TV spot for a live, front-porch ad feel like genius — or too far off the grid?
