Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess
As an event space, we're always looking for ways to add value for our clients and create memorable experiences. Hosting a brand activation during the festival gave us an additional revenue stream and positioned us as a community-forward venue. Plus, seeing our space full of engaged people discovering new products felt really aligned with our mission.
Working with Blackbird Film Fest to host a brand activation brought in crowds we wouldn't normally see on a Thursday evening, which honestly helped offset our slower mid-week slump. The brand partner was professional and their sampling complemented our menu perfectly. We're definitely interested in doing this again.
The product sampling activation we hosted during Blackbird Film Fest was incredibly well-received by our film-loving audience. We saw a 40% uptick in concession sales that weekend, and customers appreciated having something unique to experience alongside their movie experience. It felt natural to the vibe of our venue and created genuine buzz among our regulars.
