Masala Coffee performing at The Galleria Mall, Bengaluru
Brookfield Properties’ retail spaces are about more than shopping: they also educate and entertain audiences. Here is a quick recap of the past season’s key retail events
We believe retail should be anything but typical. That’s precisely why we blend shopping, dining and entertainment to create memorable experiences for visitors. At our retail spaces, brands grow, shoppers explore and communities connect.
Our retail destinations enjoyed an eventful last 2022 season, thanks to electrifying live shows and special festivals. Well-known band Masala Coffee played in what was the first live music event at Bengaluru’s Galleria Mall post-Covid-19. The performance left the jam-packed house of 1,500 dazzled.
From a celebration of sounds to the festival of lights — Diwali, as you’d expect, was the grand bonanza time. The shop and win contest at The Galleria gave buyers a chance to shop for 5,000 and bag one of these prizes: one Royal Enfield, furniture from Home Centre worth Rs 50,000, 60 10 gms of silver, or three Fala Holiday vouchers. Meanwhile at the Pavilion, in Ludhiana, those shopping worth 2,999 or more got an opportunity to win a gold coin of 10gms weekly for four weeks, or weekly gift vouchers worth Rs 1,00,000.
At WorldMark Aerocity, in New Delhi, just before Diwali, we held Dia Fest, with the objective of giving back to society. The curation of more than 25 NGOs inspired visitors to contribute to a cause close to their heart, from women empowerment to water conservation.
As part of our efforts to destigmatize mental health, we hosted a talk at WorldMark Gurgaon featuring Samir Soni, actor and author of My Experiments With Silence: The Diary of An Introvert. In his book, Soni shares deeply personal diary entries from a difficult time in his life, with insights on how he worked through it and became the person he is today. The event offered our tenants and employees an opportunity to interact with the actor, and discuss their fears and anxieties candidly.
WorldMark Gurgaon has become a great place for a family outing. This has a lot to do with Weekend Fiesta, a regular fixture that so far has featured busk stops, flea markets and kids’ games.
