After a long wait of almost 20 years, The Devil Wears Prada is back with a bang. This May Miranda Priestly and the Runway team are gracing our screens for one of the most anticipated films of the year, The Devil Wears Prada 2. The film follows an older Miranda navigating the decline of print media, forced to seek help from her former assistant Emily, now a luxury executive holding crucial advertising dollars and of course, Anne Hathaway returns as a more mature Andy to aid in navigating this new, high-stakes fashion landscape.
One of the most stylish films deserves the most stylish promotion, and what better brand than Diet Coke to lead the way? Known truly as a ‘cool girl’ staple, the drink is even used as an accessory and is regularly associated with the fashion industry and models in particular. The can itself embodies a minimalist, effortless chic, reflecting a perfect, high-level synergy between the brand&#8217;s campaign and film.

The campaign was placed in city centre locations, perfect for capturing the attention of fashion-conscious, on the go audiences, focusing on the commuter break as the ultimate ‘Runway moment’. 
&nbsp;
We were proud to carry the campaign as a special build situated on our Liverpool ABC Cinema banner site, which sits directly outside Liverpool’s main train station, Liverpool Lime Street. The build included red neon lighting around the perimeter of the banner, creating a truly strikingly stylish look. 
&nbsp;
The colour of the light was in keeping with the red shoes which feature prominently throughout the full campaign, and was designed to capture the attention of thousands of commuters travelling into and throughout the city each day. The final result created a perfect balance between both the Diet Coke brand and the film release.

Summer is on the horizon and football fans world wide are waiting for the holy grail of football tournaments, The World Cup. Widely considered the biggest sporting event, The World Cup returns in June, surpassing all other sports in global reach, cultural significance and audience engagement. It isn’t just a sporting occasion, but something the nation celebrates and turns even the most indifferent to into a (sometimes unintentional) football fan as World Cup fever takes hold. 
&nbsp;
During the last tournament back in 2022, viewing figures in the UK peaked at 21.31million for the quarter final alone, and became the most-watched single channel TV moment of the year. Fast forward to 2026 and a study by YouGov has found that 3 in 10 Britons, and two thirds of football fans, are excited for more thrilling football action from this years’ tournament. 
&nbsp;
Football is engrained in the culture of the UK, and the sport is known as inherently social as it fosters both community and a sense of belonging with its followers. Those who watch connect through a shared passion and this is evident in both how and when people choose to watch football. Among Britons who plan to watch the World Cup this year, 55% say they plan to watch live at home, 27% say they plan to watch in a pub or bar, and 26% say they will watch at a friends or family’s home.

Despite being hosted in the US, the 2026 World Cup is set to again be a massive commercial event for the UK with domestic consumer spending expected to surge. During the summer of sport, up to £400m is expected to be spent and alongside this, high confidence during successful tournaments can lead to increased household spending, with approximately £75m to £150m in extra sales. 
&nbsp;
A study from Epsilon looking at consumer spending for the 2026 matches discovered that 3 in 10 football fans say they are likely to choose a brand that launches timely promotions during the World Cup, while a further 2 in 10 believe this influence extends beyond the tournament. Even among non-league fans, 37% say World Cup activity increases their likelihood of choosing a brand during the competition. Key categories which see an uptick in spend include: 
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Hospitality: During the Qatar 2022 World Cup, pubs saw an uptick of up to 73% in spend, even during week day matches, with roughly half a million adults choosing to watch in these locations. This year, Stonegate pubs are expected to sell around 7 million pints alone during the tournament, demonstrating the clear appetite for fans to be in the pub and watching with friends. Although fans do also celebrate at home, pubs remain a central venue for communal viewing, with around 128 extra pints sold in the average pub on England match days during the 2022 tournament. </li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Retail Food &amp; Drink: A significant amount of spend is seen on drinks and snacks for viewing at home either with family or friends, as well as on supplies such as alcohol and BBQ food for garden parties. In 2022, around £1.6bn was reported to have been spent in supermarkets and convenience stores for the tournament, with the England v Wales match in particular pulling in £104.7 million, as fans prepared to watch at home. In 2026, it has been suggested that because many games shown in the UK will kick off at a later time, a larger share of spend will shift towards food &amp; drink for the home. 71% of fans also say their spending habits are likely to change, with an uplift in snacks and soft drinks for when they are watching on their own or hosting others.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Electrics &amp; Technology: Many fans use the advent of the World Cup as an excuse to upgrade their home entertainment tech, with approximately 69% of fans planning to make World Cup related purchases before it starts. During this world cup, a ‘second screen’ is no longer a distraction, but a way to be simultaneously messaging, checking stats and scrolling social feeds. Audience interest for these items begins early, with approximately £75m to £150m in extra sales.</li>

World Cup spending is a once in a four year opportunity for brands to target an extremely unique and receptive set of consumers, and OOH helps to capture the attention of the fans in the physical world where the atmosphere is truly one of a kind. 
&nbsp;
The World Cup is a social event, and fans are not only just in their homes but in transit hubs, retail locations, bars and pubs, and fan zones. OOH provides the opportunity for brands to be present  in these environments when consumers are most engaged and receptive. Not only this but fans who engage with OOH during major sporting events are statistically more likely to spend. According to the OAAA, 90% of fans who recall seeing an OOH ad for a major sporting event take a follow-up action and 99% of fans who attend a game or fan zone after seeing OOH ads end up spending money locally on food, drinks, or merchandise.
&nbsp;
Ultimately, the 2026 World Cup represents more than just a spike in the retail calendar; it is a fundamental shift in how UK consumers interact with brands in the real world. OOH advertising offers an unblockable, high impact presence that meets fans where they gather. In a summer set to be defined by cultural moments and collective experience, OOH doesn&#8217;t just broadcast a message, it puts brands right into the heart of the action where it matters most.

It is no secret that the power of spending from families is enormous, with over 19.7 million families living in the UK, and with approximately 10.6 million children of school age it is not surprising that when the half term holidays arrive leisure and retail venues see an uptake in both visitors and spend. 
&nbsp;
Keeping children occupied during the school holidays adds up quickly for parents and carers through things such as; days out, treats and technology. Estimated spending figures for entertaining children during school holidays is around £300 annually, with activities such as visiting theme parks, zoos or the cinema being high on the agenda for school break plans. 
&nbsp;
During school holidays OOH remains one of the most effective ways to reach families with the ability for ads to be unskippable as well as being able to reach families when they are out of the home spending their time and money. 
&nbsp;
Families are often out of the home during the school holiday periods and OOH gives brands the opportunity to reach these key audiences in high traffic, high dwell areas when they are often in a receptive, spending mindset.

Looking specifically at the first half term break of the year, we have extracted data from our AdMobilize technology on our BOXPARK Wembley site to discover just how much audiences change during school holidays, and why these specific times represent a crucial time to reach family-focused audiences using OOH. 
&nbsp;
This year, Wembley is home to the Mundo Pixar Exhibition, a movie-lovers dream where visitors can step into lifelike sets from some of their favourite Pixar films including Toy Story, Cars and Monsters, Inc. With a combination of the Pixar exhibition coupled with the half term holidays, this presented a key opportunity for family-focused campaigns to activate in this area over the week, with campaigns for three much-anticipated family films utilising our BOXPARK Wembley site.
&nbsp;
As we expected to see within the data, audiences have increased by 14% from the week previous, demonstrating the key opportunity brands have in this time to target family focused audiences. The number of impressions stayed consistent throughout each day of the week, unlike term time weeks which usually see impression figures peak and trough during specific days and times of the midweek. Backing up these figures we also saw peak impressions during one day of the week rise to 70,950, a 6% increase from the week previous. 
&nbsp;
As well as solely impression data, the AdMobilize technology can also detect the age of campaign viewers. The data from the school half term week on our BOXPARK Wembley site shows an increase in the amount of ‘young’ and ‘young adult’ viewers, demonstrating further the fact that families are out and about during the break.

While school holiday trends follow a predictable pattern, their value lies in the heightened receptivity of the family audience. During half term, families are likely to move from a functional routine into more of an experiential mindset, making them significantly more responsive to brand messaging. This shift creates an ideal window for family focused brands and campaigns to activate, capturing consumers exactly when they are most likely to be prepared to spend.

Open Media has successfully recertified as a B Corp with a score of 124.6, marking a 48 percent increase in three years. This significant milestone, and significant improvement on its original certification score of 84.2, provides clear evidence that the business has continued to evolve, improve and raise the bar over recent years.
&nbsp;
B Corp recertification is not a tick-box exercise. It is a rigorous, independently verified assessment of how a company performs across social impact, environmental responsibility and accountability. Open Media’s improved score reflects real, measurable changes to the way the business operates day to day.
&nbsp;
The milestone reinforces Open Media’s leadership within the sector. The company continues to outperform the global B Corp average by a significant margin and remains the only certified OOH media owner in Europe.
&nbsp;
Since first becoming a B Corp, Open Media has focused on building momentum rather than standing still. The framework has been used as a tool for continuous improvement, helping the business deliver better outcomes for its people, partners and the communities it serves.

Over the past three years, Open Media has made meaningful improvements to how it supports and develops its team. A clear and consistent onboarding process has been introduced for both managers and new starters, helping to improve clarity and retention. A wide range of internal policies has been reviewed and strengthened, including whistleblowing, ethical marketing, new parent support, complaints, local hiring, remote working, internal promotion, lateral moves and travel.
&nbsp;
An ethics risk assessment has been completed with the senior leadership team, and Open Media now hosts an annual B Corp Month celebration to raise awareness of the movement and encourage more sustainable media planning across the industry.

Operational improvements have also been made across place and practice. The technical team now carries out regular quality control assessments, supported by new daily checks and a warranty agreement included within sales documentation.
&nbsp;
Open Media has introduced an annual client and partner survey to track customer satisfaction, with positive improvements seen across the board. Complaint channels have been clarified and policies updated to ensure transparency and accountability.

Open Media has strengthened its environmental commitments alongside its social impact. The business has consistently measured its carbon footprint for the past three years, tracking Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions using bills and spend data in partnership with Futureproof. Renewable energy-powered sites have increased from 52 percent to 81 percent, and Open Media has committed to donating the equivalent of at least 2 percent of its profits in screen time to registered charities.
&nbsp;
In 2025, Open Media also launched The Conscious Network, a tailored out-of-home solution designed for brands that put sustainability at the heart of their strategy. Each of the six premium sites included over-indexes against key sustainable audiences, operates on a renewable energy tariff and includes a fully carbon-calculated post-campaign report as standard.
&nbsp;
Recertifying as a B Corp is an important milestone for Open Media, but it also marks ongoing progress. The business remains committed to accountability, continuous improvement and the belief that better business leads to better outcomes for people, partners and communities.
