experiential marketing (venues)
As far as I can tell, this type of advertising transforms a venue into an experience. "Begehbare Werbung" immerses people in a brand environment.
"Inszenierte Orte als „begehbare Werbung“ Wer nicht bereit ist, seinen Kunden ein Mindestmaß an Erlebnissen zu schenken, der hat es schwer in einer Zeit, in der viele Bereiche der Wirtschaft von Erlebnissen durchdrungen sind. Die Wirtschaft setzt zunehmend auf inszenierte Orte als „begehbare Werbung“.

Note: the original text placed "begehbare Werbung" in quotation marks.
From what Nicole has indicated, this is not an established term in German marketing.
You might be able to use "experiential marketing" alone, because the idea of a "venue" (a football match) is already fairly clear from the context.
Granted, "experiential marketing" means "Erlebniskommunikation" in German, and the German text is striving to convey a slightly different notion with "begehbare Werbung" (an analogy with "begehbare Kunst", as Nicole suggested?) -- but I think, in this context, you could get away with it. You'd definitely be in the ballpark. I'd say you're better off going with an accepted industry term than to adopt some new jargon that sounds quirky or like a translation from German.

The football match was of course just one example of a possible sponsoring situation.
The German text is so general that you probably have quite a bit of leeway here.

Not that I am aware of. "Begehbare W." is no established marketing term either. Probably derived from "begehbare Kunst".//That's pretty much it. In fact, even a booth at a trade show would fall into this category. ;-)

http://www.michaelhuber.at/assets/ThePromenadePrinciple.rtf
With their artificial city squares and their car-free streets (which, ironically, could only be reached by car), malls should give their visitors the sense of urbanity that the emigrant had loved so much in his Austrian hometown, where the city center, encircled by a grand boulevard, the “Ringstraße”, was dense and walkable. However, as M. Jeffrey Hardwick points out in his book “Mall Maker”, Gruen used another strategy to promote his idea when talking to contractors: he argued that the longer customers stay in a shopping center, the more money they spend. The concept proved to be lucrative indeed. Since its inception, the idea of a city in a box has circled the globe many times, and, it left a clone of the box in almost every part of the world. ...
...“The architect is convinced that malls aren’t only machines for consumption, but new kinds of urban space”, Mikunda said. ...
...But it remains unclear if the democratization of space in a mall also results in a dissemination of power, if people can use the space and participate in shaping it. The air-conditioned box can only be a real urban space if it allows spontaneity, creativity and some forms of resistance. ...
...Libeskind’s deconstructed box near Bern may be the architectural sign for the mall’s departure from its traditional form - but as an idea, the mall continues to shape cities and our lives. ...
...the street only became a pedestrian zone after Victor Gruen returned from America in 1968 and worked out a master plan for a car-free city. Today, there are Prada and Gucci flagship stores behind the ancient façades, and the building that once housed the city’s oldest department store is now home to a H&M branch store. Vienna has become very much like a shopping mall. Only the roof is missing.

comment:
The idea is basically to provide the prospective buyer with an environment that affords for him/her a great experience of comfort and because of it, he/she wants to stay and "walk around, sit around, hang out, feel comfortable and cozy, happy, etc." and because of it is more likely to be interested in buying something.
In its ideal form, this kind of advertising environment treats the human being as a human being first and not simply as a person looking to buy something.

I agree with Nicole absolutely that this is most likely a reference to begehbare Kunst - for which the translation would not be 'experiential art'.

From what I see, this is German jargon for advertising that attempts to actively involve the target audience -- perhaps some combination of 'dynamic' and 'experiential', but advertising jargon isn't my field. Here are some references:
Im schwarzen Trikot einer Fassadenkletterin schwebt die Weinkellnerin am Stahlseil auf den 17 Meter hohen Flaschenturm des Restaurants »Aureole« in Las Vegas. Brüllend wie ein wildes Tier, mit Rauch und röhrendem Motor, erscheint der Sportwagen auf der Außenfassade des Lamborghini Pavillons der VW Autostadt in Wolfsburg. Und in einem Supermarkt bei Wien entspannen zahlreiche Projektionen sich wiegender Sonnenblumenfelder die gestressten Kunden.
Solche Urban Entertainment Center, solche Brandlands gehören zu den neuen Erlebniswelten der Wirtschaft. Sie sind spektakuläres Erlebnismarketing und »begehbare Werbung«. Und sie bringen unsere Städte zum Leuchten!
http://www.kulturmanagement.net/buecher/prm/49/v__d/ni__433/...
Die Spaßgesellschaft wurde vom Zeitalter der „neuen Ernsthaftigkeit“ abgelöst. Statt der Flucht in eine Traumwelt suchen Konsumenten nach Erlebnissen, die mit Sinn und tiefen Gefühlen verbunden sind, mit echten Materialien und Design, mit Lebenshilfe und einer „Seelenmassage“ zwischendurch. Dritte Orte, wie Brandlands oder Concept Stores, erfüllen diese Sehnsucht. Nach dem gestalteten Heim und dem ästhetischen Arbeitsplatz sind sie begehbare Werbung.
