What is a mall activation?
Mall activations are when a brand leverages a mall environment to experientially engage people with popups, events, PR stunts, and activities to achieve marketing goals. Your mall activation can take place on a single day, on the weekend, or, in the case of a popup shop, for an entire month.
Detailed mall demographics offer brands the ability to engage specific audiences.
Ideally, your mall activation enhances a person's experience at the mall while achieving brand objectives.
Malls charge fees for activation space, ranging from $500 to $15,000 per day, depending upon the location and length of the initiative.
Overall, a mall provides your company with unique brand marketing opportunities.

Takeaways
Mall activations are an essential element of a year-round experiential marketing mix.
They help you to connect with people, especially during the cold winter months in the Northeast and Midwest or, conversely, during the hot summer months in the Southeast and Southwest.
Newer malls are more than shopping destinations; they're where people go out to eat, socialize, and attend local happenings.
