GAP Summer Fridays at NorthPark Center: 40 Gallons, Custom Marshmallows & Retail Activation Magic ☕💙
We love the GAP brand. But even more, we loved how intentional their team was about every detail of this event. From styling Dianna and Shiloh to dialing in the Summer Fridays collab aesthetic, we knew this experiential activation would hit different. Are Shiloh and Dianna the cutest GAP baristas to ever exist? I mean, probably, but let's move on...
From inquiry to execution, this one had our team fired up from the start. In the world of retail events, brands often hire experiential agencies to plan, design, and execute their events—and this masterpiece was no different. The agencies then look for the boots-on-ground talent to deliver the experience they've planned—and that's where Nightowl's magic comes in.
So when CNC Agency reached out, we know this was going to be a big one. Over the past few years, CNC has called on the Caffeine Team (us!) to help deliver major brand moments for event partners such as MTV and Revlon—and now GAP. The playbook is always the same: the CNC team crushes the planning and design, Nightowl crushes the guest experience.
Custom Details That Made It Iconic
GAP didn’t skip a beat on branding.
- Custom white countertop with branded typography
- Seamless Summer Fridays color palette
- Branded GAP marshmallows floating in hot chocolate
The marshmallows did for cocoa what our latte logo printer does for espresso catering—tiny, high-impact brand moments that turn drinks into shareable activation pieces.
This is the difference between basic coffee catering and the team at Nightowl who delivers coffee cart experiences in motion. Whether you call it experiential marketing, IRL events, or brand activations—we call it our passion.
40 Gallons. Delivered Hourly.
GAP needed 40 gallons of off-premise hot chocolate at NorthPark Center. With our HQ 13 minutes away, we deployed 10 gallons every hour, on the hour—fresh, hot, seamless. That’s the power of scalable mobile barista stations and a coffee cart service built for volume without sacrificing quality.
We’ve served some of the biggest brands in the world—and GAP instantly became a favorite. The trust. The creativity. The shared obsession with detail.
