Reach Paris audiences with bus advertising in the places that matter.

Bus Advertising in Paris is out of home advertising on the routes people already use. The Paris Métro opened in 1900 and still moves the city's working day. The Champs-Élysées and La Défense hold the roadside and facade inventory that a Paris launch is judged against.

We plan bus advertising around the Champs-Élysées, La Défense and the Métro. Métro commuters, shoppers and visitors on the Champs-Élysées, and office traffic in La Défense.

Bus Advertising Formatsin Paris

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

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

  • Bus wrap advertising: a double-decker is wrapped in a green Snickers Ice Cream advert with Arabic lettering.

    Bus Wraps

    Bus Wraps in Paris are booked around the Champs-Élysées, La Défense and the Métro. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    A bus wrap in Paris owns the route. The vehicle is seen along the road and again at every stop, which is a lot of repeat on a busy corridor.

  • Bus advertising in London, in the United Kingdom: a bus carries a Barbie side advert past Lillywhites and Union flags.

    Bus Sides

    Bus Sides in Paris are booked around the Champs-Élysées, La Défense and the Métro. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Bus side advertising in Paris is the network workhorse: long panels at eye level, strong at lights and stops, and easy to weight towards the districts you care about.

  • Bus rear advertising: the back of an orange double-decker carries a Pizzium advert with Garfield and a pizza, on a cobbled street with tram tracks, past a Fendi store.

    Bus Rears

    Bus Rears in Paris are booked around the Champs-Élysées, La Défense and the Métro. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Daily repeat sightings build the recall that drives action, whether that's a showroom visit, a test drive or a brand switch.

  • Bus interior advertising: passengers grip hanging hand straps that carry small picture adverts.

    Bus Interiors

    Bus Interiors in Paris are booked around the Champs-Élysées, La Défense and the Métro. We use them when the campaign needs that specific job: scale on a landmark face, or frequency on a route people already take.

    Bus interior advertising in Paris uses journey time. Passengers are seated and the trip is long enough for product and service copy that a roadside site would rush.
