This growth coincides with the rising demand for cultural and entertainment activities, especially those aimed at children, which have become a key part of offerings within shopping malls and residential neighborhoods. The centers are experiencing high attendance, with some operating for more than 13 hours a day, and a growing variety of activities including physical and electronic games. They are also offering additional services such as childcare and monthly memberships, transforming into comprehensive destinations for families. The sector is emphasizing digital marketing and expanding its business model to include restaurants and supporting services, reflecting the centers’ evolution into increasingly popular entertainment and investment hubs. The percentage of the population attending cultural events reached 75.3% in 2025.
