Who says that for a brand to experientially connect with their target audiences they need to organize consumer events or invest a bundle on brand activations? Experiences can be created anywhere and everywhere and as a result we have seen many brands executing experiential campaigns in parks, roads, colleges, on water and the list goes on. Interestingly, numerous brands have also created diverse experiences for their brands inside cinema halls to capitalize on unsuspecting customers who entered just to enjoy a movie and were left positively surprised.
