What Brands Are Saying

Real feedback from brands that have activated at The Barcelona Lofts locations

We hosted a tech accessory brand activation and it was one of the most well-attended events we've had all year. Our residents appreciated getting to try premium products before making purchases, and the brand rep did a fantastic job answering questions. Plus, the venue fee helped offset our programming costs, which is always a win for our budget.

The Gateway Residence Hall Collective

Brand Partner

We partnered with a beverage brand for a sampling event last semester and were blown away by the turnout. Our residents were genuinely excited to try new products, and it created such a vibrant community atmosphere in our courtyard. The activation team handled everything professionally, and we've already booked another event for next quarter.

The Riverside Student Commons

As a housing manager, I'm always looking for ways to add value for our residents beyond just providing rooms. This snack brand sampling activation did exactly that—we saw incredible engagement, residents talked about it for weeks, and honestly, it strengthened our community vibe. The whole process was seamless from booking to execution.
