Increasing the Economic Impact in Your Community: Let's Glow SF

Projection mapping events have become increasingly popular in recent years, and it's not hard to see why. Not only do they provide a unique and memorable experience for attendees, but they also have a significant economic impact on the community in which they are held. A perfect example of this is Let's Glow SF, which our team activated in 2021 for their first-ever holiday projection mapping event.

Let's Glow SF was billed as the largest projection mapping event in the United States, and it did not disappoint. In 2021, Let's Glow SF drew in a crowd of 36,000 people, with 83% of survey respondents saying that it was the primary reason they came to the downtown area. Furthermore, 82% of survey respondents reported spending between $50 and $100 at local businesses during the event. The overall estimated economic impact of Let's Glow SF was an impressive $2.1 million.

In 2022, Let's Glow SF surpassed all expectations, with 51,000 people in attendance (a 42% increase from the previous year). The event also pulled in over 307,500 views on social media, making it one of the most talked-about events in the city. With an average of $121 per person in the district during the event, the second annual Let's Glow SF's Holiday Projection Mapping event resulted in a total economic impact of $3 million!
