Now that the holidays aren't far off, you may be scrambling to find ways to make your shopping center more festive. But don't worry; there are plenty of ways to spruce up your shopping center without breaking the bank. Here are a few ideas:
Put up Holiday-Themed Decorations
This is an easy and inexpensive way to make your shopping center more festive. You can find holiday-themed banners, garlands, and lights at most stores that sell party supplies. These decorations will not only make your shopping center more festive, but they'll also attract attention from people driving or walking by.
Have a Holiday-Themed Window-Dressing Contest
This is a great way to get your tenants involved in the holiday decorating process. Encourage them to come up with creative ways to deck out their storefronts. Then, have customers vote on their favorite displays. The winners can receive prizes like gift cards or free rent for a month.
This can include putting up holiday-themed decorations or participating in a holiday-themed window-dressing contest.
Organize a Holiday Concert or Parade
Another great way to get your tenants and customers involved is to organize a holiday concert or parade. You can have local school choirs perform or hire a Santa Claus and some elves to hand out candy. This is sure to be a hit with the kids (and the young at heart).
Host a Holiday Concert or Santa visit
Another way to get your tenants involved is to host a holiday concert or have Santa make an appearance at your shopping center. This will definitely attract attention from people who are out doing their holiday shopping.
Santa visits are hugely popular, so you may want to consider hiring a professional company that specializes in this. They can provide everything from Santa Claus himself to elves and even a reindeer.
Have a Holiday-Themed Playlist
Playing holiday music throughout your shopping center is a great way to get people into the holiday spirit. Make sure to mix up the playlist so that it doesn't get too repetitive.
Some of the most popular holiday songs are:
"Jingle Bells"
"Deck the Halls"
"We Wish You a Merry Christmas"
"Silent Night"
Consider having a contest to see who can come up with the best holiday-themed playlist. The winner can receive a prize, like a gift card.
