Long live the King: How to decorate your shop window for the coronation celebrations

clientservices December 1, 2024

With King Charles III’s coronation swiftly approaching, millions of individuals across the nation are preparing to gather in celebration of the new monarch. As communities throughout England and beyond unite in commemoration, it is a fantastic opportunity for businesses to get involved in the joyous occasion.

Why not adorn your shop window with flags and decorations in honour of our new monarch or offer special royal-themed discounts to entice patriots into your shop? Not only will this create a buzz in your community, but it is also a great way to attract customers and bolster sales.

Keep Calm and Choose a Theme

Think about what the coronation means to you and the message you want to convey. You can opt for a traditional palace theme, incorporating the Union Jack flag, red, white and blue bunting, gold balloons and regal accessories. Alternatively, you can go for a more modern approach by featuring trendy crown designs, neon lights and social media hashtags.

Ultimately, whatever theme you decide on should be relevant to your business and the type of customers you attract. If you’re searching for customisable, temporary graphics to decorate your shop window, vinyl window graphics will help you to achieve a professional, bespoke display fit for a king.

For larger retail stores, why stop there? Custom-printed floor graphics and temporary signage can help you to bring your regal vision to life.

Be Original

Being original and innovative is essential to creating a memorable and eye-catching coronation display. Take this chance to embrace your creativity to make a truly extraordinary, one-of-a-kind display that reflects your brand personality and attracts a diverse range of customers.

The same bespoke graphics utilised for events and exhibitions would be perfect for this, applying vibrant, temporary illustrations to captivate your audience.

You may even decide to offer exclusive royal-themed discounts or giveaways to encourage customers to visit your store. This way, your coronation decorations will also act as promotional material.

Spread the Word

Once you’ve decorated your shop window, it’s time to share it with the world. Use social media platforms to spread the word and invite your followers and customers to visit your store. Include photos of your display, use relevant hashtags and encourage your audience to share their own coronation-inspired posts.

You could even reach out to other businesses in your area with decorated shop windows for the coronation. You can collaborate with them to create a joint marketing campaign that will help you reach more people.

6. Sneeze screens

Those who have already ventured outside will have no doubt come across these clear dividers already. Although it can feel as though you’re in the middle of a sci-fi movie set, such installations are a fantastic barrier for airborne germs, and are one of the main ‘weapons’ in our first steps towards the ‘new normal’.

7. Sanitation stations 

One of the biggest hurdles for retailers to overcome, is the sense that anything within the store could be covered in bacteria. While it’s impossible to prevent shoppers from picking up – and putting back – items, sanitation stations will help to ensure employees, visitors and customers can follow hand hygiene advice and help beat COVID-19.

8. Antibacterial film 

Less invasive than other PPE options, the high street will soon be inundated with surfaces covered in this transparent plastic. It’s perfect for surfaces such as touchscreens, keypads, lift buttons and worktables – and helps to reduce the spread of germs.

9. Mobile screen dividers 

Much like the sneeze screens, these mobile barriers will not only help to divide the retail environment, but also serve to control the flow of people. While branded barriers will likely aid with queues to enter a store, these will prove essential once inside – particularly during busy periods.

10. Face masks

A subject of much debate, the UK Government is now advising the general public to wear face protection where possible. Therefore, expect to see shopworkers in branded PPE – but be prepared to don your own too.
