Simon Malls Follows 1st-ever Brand Campaign w/ Influencer-Studded Holiday Spot.
America's long-favorite hangout destination (aka the mall) is better than ever with 47% of Gen Z’s say they prefer to shop in-store over online.
To get in the holiday spirit and celebrate IRL shopping, Simon Malls (in collaboration with Simon’s AOR, SuperBloom House) has created a festive spin on its catchy “Meet Me at the Mall” campaign, which brings together Billie Eilish’s director and some of Gen Z’s favorite Creators to anthemize the many benefits of today's malls.
The original :60 spot, which first ran in September, has garnered 140M impressions, 70M video views, exceeding TT, IG, CTV, YT benchmarks (500%) in just two months.
The new :30 second spot is a holiday-ified version of “Meet Me at the Mall” campaign, which serves as an invitation from Simon for everyone to gather in a place that has always brought joy, community, and memorable experiences.
The spot includes its original re-recording of “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” by Simple Minds with new lyrics celebrating the mall - “Won’t You (Meet Me at the Mall)” along with a sprinkle of jingle bells.
Filmed inside a Simon Malls location, the work features a unique cast of creators aimed to appeal to some of social media’s most popular corners:
Alejandro Rosario
The Pitman Sisters
Gym Tan
Maya Miller
Preshous Jordan
Dan Pelosi
Directed by Matty Peacock, known for the iconic Billie Eilish music video set in a mall, the innovative director brings pop culture along with a wealth of music knowledge from collaborating with artists like Selena Gomez, Carly Rae Jepsen, The 1975, and Gwen Stefani.
Matty is also a member of SuperBloom House’s Creative Collective, a membership program designed to foment an unexpected mix of creative talent that brand’s wouldn’t typically have access to.
This video-led campaign will run across Connected TV, TikTok, IG, and YouTube, and is supported and distributed by Influencers/Creators featured inside the music video.
