Looking to deliver a memorable, family-friendly experience this Halloween? Odin Events specialises in Halloween theming for shopping centres, with creative, fully managed solutions that attract families, increase footfall, and bring a touch of spooky fun to your retail space.

Our pop-up pumpkin patch installation has become a seasonal favourite for shopping centres across the UK. It's the perfect indoor Halloween activation—ideal for creating buzz, entertaining children, and encouraging longer dwell times during the October half-term.

In addition to the patch, we offer a wide range of Halloween props in all sizes, from playful to mildly spooky, ensuring everything stays suitable for family event programming.

Add in photo opportunity zones and themed displays designed for social sharing, and you’ve got a proven strategy for experiential retail that drives both engagement and visibility.

Bring the magic of Christmas to life with Odin Events’ fully themed Santa’s Grottos, designed specifically for indoor shopping centres and retail environments. Our immersive grottos are proven to increase dwell time, boost customer spend, and enhance your centre’s reputation as a festive destination.

Whether you need a traditional winter wonderland or a branded, modern twist, we offer a wide range of Santa’s Grotto hire packages to suit your space, layout, and audience. All installations are modular, accessible, and fully managed from setup to takedown.

Pair your grotto with festive props, live elves, and photo opportunities to create a complete Christmas footfall-driving activation that delights families and builds seasonal buzz.

Add energy and atmosphere to your centre with live entertainment that captures attention and encourages dwell time. Odin Events supplies a wide range of family-friendly performers tailored for shopping malls and town centre activations, helping you create engaging, memorable experiences for your visitors.

From seasonal walkabout characters like elves, scarecrows, and Easter bunnies to circus performers, musicians, and magicians, we provide live entertainment for shopping centres that enhances your event programming and gives customers a reason to stay longer—and spend more.

Our acts are perfect for weekend footfall peaks, school holidays, and themed campaigns and can be paired with props, trails, or photo zones for maximum retail event impact.
