Eid in the region isn’t just a celebration; it’s a spectacular opportunity for brands to captivate a vibrant and engaged audience. This Eid, the stage is set with over 14 films premiering during the festive weekend, creating a dazzling canvas for brands looking to amplify their advertising impact.
Here’s why seizing this opportunity with cinema ads priced by admission is a strategic masterstroke.

Introducing the MBR City 2020 Diwali cinema ad campaign
Diwali – the festival of lights, is one of the most popular Indian festivals widely rejoiced by Hindus across the globe. The festival symbolizes the spiritual ‘victory’ of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. It is a time for both gratitude and happiness, and is celebrated by families and friends with the lighting of oil lamps, exchange of presents, feasting on traditional sweets and wearing new ethic outfits.
This year’s festival fell on Saturday 14th November, and even though we are still very much in COVID-19 mode, the spirit of Diwali lived on, with families celebrating responsibly and festival related events executed in compliance with COVID-19 safety protocols.
Bringing a touch of Diwali to the BIG Screen this year was Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City). As part of the 6 week on-screen campaign (from 5th November to 16th December 2020) with Motivate Val Morgan, MBR City dedicated ten days (5th – 14th November 2020) to its bright and glamorous 2020 Diwali creative.
