Tech the Halls: Incorporating Technology into Your Holiday Storefront Display

Here's how you can seamlessly blend the festive spirit with innovative technology to captivate and engage passersby during the holiday season.

The holiday season beckons with twinkling lights and cheerful decorations. As we've come to understand, our target visitor segments hold a keen enthusiasm for technology. Here's how you can seamlessly blend the festive spirit with innovative technology to captivate and engage passersby during the holiday season.


1. Digital Screens and Projectors

  • Animated Stories: Use large digital screens or projectors to display animated holiday stories or scenes. This could be snow falling, Santa's sleigh flying, or a heartwarming holiday narrative.

  • Product Highlights: Showcase rotating product images or videos, highlighting holiday specials or top-selling items.

2. Augmented Reality (AR) Experiences

  • Interactive Windows: Using AR, passersby can point their smartphones at the window and interact with virtual elements superimposed onto the real-world view.

  • Virtual Try-Ons: For retailers selling clothing or accessories, offer a virtual try-on experience right at the window.

3. Touchscreen Displays

  • Interactive Catalog: Let potential customers browse your holiday catalog, get product information, or even make a wish-list.

  • Games and Activities: Design simple holiday-themed games or quizzes, with winners getting discounts or promotional codes.

4. QR Codes

  • Exclusive Deals: Display QR codes that, when scanned, offer exclusive holiday promotions or content.

  • Product Information: Use QR codes next to products in the window, allowing people to learn more about them or even make a purchase on the spot.

5. Social Media Integration

  • Live Social Feed: Display a live feed of your store's social media activity, especially posts where customers share their own experiences with your products during the holidays.

  • Hashtag Campaigns: Launch a holiday hashtag campaign and encourage customers to share their festive moments, which get featured in your storefront window.

6. Interactive Floor Projections

  • Using projectors placed overhead, create interactive floor experiences in front of your store. As people walk by, snowflakes might scatter or bells might jingle, responding to their movement.

7. Holographic Displays

  • A more advanced option, holography can bring 3D holiday-themed visuals to life, from floating ornaments to dancing elves.


Example: Le Petit Chef - Projection Mapping


8. Beacon Technology

  • By setting up beacons, you can send out Bluetooth notifications to smartphones in close proximity, alerting passersby to special in-store holiday deals or events. (An app is required, business or third party)

9. Sound Integration

  • Combine visual elements with strategically placed speakers playing synchronized holiday jingles, product descriptions, or even interactive stories.


Integrating technology into your holiday storefront window doesn't just elevate its visual appeal; it also creates a dynamic and interactive experience for potential customers. While the traditions of the holiday season remain beloved, adding a touch of the future can make your storefront truly unforgettable.
