Stepping Into Summer:

Birkenstock’s 2-Day Activation at SoftMoc Montreal Delivers Fun, Fashion, and Photo Magic

The SoftMoc store in Montreal transformed into a hub of energy and engagement during Birkenstock’s exciting two-day activation event, held on May 31 and June 1, 2025. As the city geared up for summer, Birkenstock and SoftMoc delivered more than just stylish footwear—they created a full-on experience that combined interactive activities, vibrant visuals, and unforgettable photo moments.

At the heart of the activation was LOL Photobooth GTA, bringing their crowd-favorite iRing Social Kiosk to elevate the in-store atmosphere. Guests had the chance to create fun, shareable GIFs and Boomerangs, complete with a custom Birkenstock digital template that perfectly matched the brand’s clean, modern aesthetic. The template featured the signature Birkenstock elements, giving every snap that branded, editorial-worthy finish.

The scene was set with a giant Birkenstock shoe installation—an oversized, eye-catching piece that immediately drew in curious shoppers. It became more than a display—it turned into a photo magnet and conversation starter. Positioned right next to this massive shoe was the exciting Spin the Wheel game, offering shoppers a chance to win exclusive Birkenstock prizes, discounts, and other branded goodies. The combination of these two elements created a fun and dynamic photo background that encouraged interaction and playfulness.


LOL Photobooth GTA’s iRing Kiosk added an extra layer of excitement. With its easy-to-use interface and fast sharing options, guests could capture their stylish moments and receive their digital creations instantly via text or email. Whether it was a quick Boomerang of someone spinning the prize wheel or a group GIF posing with the big shoe, every frame captured the fun spirit of the activation.


The two-day event wasn’t just about showcasing new footwear—it was about building a memorable experience around the brand. From long-time Birkenstock fans to curious first-timers, everyone who stopped by got to connect with the brand in a fresh and creative way.


The iRing Social Kiosk proved to be a crowd favorite, not just for its entertainment value but for its ability to boost real-time social sharing. Shoppers enthusiastically posted their branded GIFs and Boomerangs on Instagram and TikTok, tagging Birkenstock and SoftMoc, and amplifying the event’s reach beyond the store walls.


The activation was a brilliant example of how retail can be both functional and fun. By combining innovative digital tech, physical engagement, and a touch of whimsy (giant shoe, anyone?), Birkenstock and SoftMoc turned a typical shopping day into something unforgettable.


LOL Photobooth GTA was proud to play a role in this standout event, helping bring the Birkenstock brand to life with creativity, personality, and digital flair. It’s always exciting to be part of activations that go beyond the expected—and this one truly delivered.



Until next time, Montreal—keep those feet comfy and those memories digital!
