The hottest trend on the mall scene is Live
Entertainment. The philosophy is that malls should be more than just places to
shop. They should be places people come to enjoy themselves and have a good
experience all around.
An increase in traffic to a mall is
naturally better for a mall and one way to draw a large crowd is through live
entertainment (Bands, DJs, Illusion Shows, Strolling Performers, etc.) and special
events (Breakfast With Santa, Easter Egg Hunt, Mardi Gras in the Mall, etc.) 
The atmosphere of the mall is truly the determining
factor and Mall Entertainment is something that will differentiate your mall
from it's neighbor.
“Finding ways to attract people is one important measure of a mall's

success… Successful malls can compete with e-commerce
retailers because of the social experiences and entertainment they provide” (Bill Gladstone, of
NAI/Commercial-Industrial Realty Co.)
