CASE STUDY

Custom Fortnite Nerf Display and Activation at AT&T Stadium

FAN EXPERIENCE

Executive Summary

For Jared’s Epic Nerf Battle, a fan event series spanning four activations at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, NPARALLEL + Atomic Props built the physical infrastructure that made the experience worth showing up for. A custom display case put the Fortnite branded Nerf lineup, including a new Special Edition gun, center stage. Custom interactive targets gave fans a reason to compete, stay longer, and come back. 

Fortnite Stadium Takeoever

Business Challenge

CNX needed more than a branded backdrop. Jared’s Epic Nerf Battle is built on active participation, and the physical environment had to match that energy. Fans at an event like this don’t sit still, and the builds needed to hold up to it. 

The display case had to introduce a Special Edition product in a way that honored the Fortnite aesthetic while commanding attention in a large-venue setting. The targets needed to invite competition, not just observation. Four events meant everything had to perform consistently, show after show. 

Goals & Objectives

  • Showcase the Fortnite branded Nerf lineup and Special Edition gun with a display presentation worthy of the product launch
  • Create interactive fan touchpoints that rewarded participation and extended time on the event floor
  • Build for durability across four high-volume events at AT&T Stadium
  • Deliver fabrication that looked native to the Fortnite world, not bolted on to it

Our Solution

Custom Display Case Fabrication

The display case was designed to do two things: showcase a product and make a visual statement. Working within the Fortnite aesthetic, we fabricated a case that put the branded Nerf lineup and the Special Edition gun in a presentation fans could  actually engage with. The goal was the kind of display that stops foot traffic and earns a second look. 

Interactive Target Experience

The custom targets were built to get fans moving. Designed to test aim and skill, they turned a passive brand moment into a competitive one. Fans could step up, take their shot, and walk away with a story from the event floor, not just a photo of something they saw. 

Event Ready Durability

Four activations at AT&T Stadium means the builds had to perform, not just look good at load-in. Every component was fabricated to handle the volume and energy of a live fan environment across the full run of events. 

Results

This activation gave CNX a physical presence that matched the energy Jared’s Epic Nerf Battle promises its fans, turning a product showcase into a participation moment across four events at one of the most recognizable venues in the country. 

  • Delivered custom display case and interactive targets across four events at AT&T Stadium in Dallas
