Billboard Advertising Formatsin Johannesburg

Johannesburg offers a range of billboard formats suited to different campaign objectives, locations and creative requirements.

Images below are for illustrative purposes only. They are not specific to one location.

  • Billboard advertising in Dubai, in the UAE: a single-pole board for California Residences by Infracorp stands before the skyline.

    Unipoles

    Unipoles in Johannesburg are booked around Sandton, the commuter highways and the main retail districts. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Unipole advertising in Johannesburg is how a brand stays on an arterial through the working week. The same drivers pass it inbound and outbound, and that repeat is what turns a roadside site into recall.

  • Bridge banner advertising: a Komatsu and Williams Racing banner runs along a highway overpass above traffic.

    Bridge Banners

    Bridge Banners in Johannesburg are booked around Sandton, the commuter highways and the main retail districts. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Bridge banner advertising in Johannesburg pays off on routes people already have to take. Gateway crossings and airport approaches put the creative in front of peak traffic, which is why launches use it to arrive with the city.

  • Hoarding advertising in the UAE: a long roadside Talabat board reads UAE's largest menu and Order from 18,000+ restaurants, with glass towers behind it.

    Hoardings

    Building banner advertising in Johannesburg ties a brand to a place. A mall frontage, a commercial block or an airport landside becomes the picture of the campaign for anyone arriving in that district.

    Gantries

    Gantries in Johannesburg are booked around Sandton, the commuter highways and the main retail districts. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Gantry advertising in Johannesburg is the premium roadside buy for a highway launch. One face covers the peak flow, so the message lands with every commuter on that road.

  • Airport advertising at Singapore Changi Airport: travellers pass a wide Breitling banner above immigration.

    Static Billboards

    Static Billboards in Johannesburg are booked around Sandton, the commuter highways and the main retail districts. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Static billboard advertising in Johannesburg is the dependable layer in a roadside plan. A known route, a single message, and enough weeks on display for the brand to stick with the people who drive it.
