We plan digital OOH across Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban in South Africa. A screen can carry a different advert in the morning and the evening, which is the point of buying digital rather than a printed face. We confirm the loop before anything goes live. The loop length is agreed before the first day. Tell us the dates and the budget, and we will send a site list within 48 hours.
Where should the DOOH loop run in South Africa?
A screen in Johannesburg and Cape Town can carry a different advert in the morning and the evening. We agree the loop length before the first day.
Reach audiences across South Africa through strategically selected digital out-of-home media.
DOOH Advertising in South Africa gives brands access to digital billboards, transport networks, shopping centres, airports and other high-traffic locations.
With 20+ years of experience in digital out-of-home, OOH Global helps brands plan and deliver DOOH advertising campaigns in South Africa.
Digital out-of-home screens are a fast-growing part of South Africa's outdoor media landscape, giving brands flexible visibility across roads, retail, transport and airport environments.
The right digital screen depends on where your audience travels, shops, works and spends time.
Business-focused campaigns may prioritise Sandton and other commercial districts in Johannesburg. Retail brands can build visibility across major shopping centres, while airport screens and the Gautrain can reach people during important travel and commuter journeys.
OOH Global brings these factors together when planning DOOH advertising in South Africa. We help with market planning, screen selection, current availability, scheduling, creative specifications, media booking and campaign execution.

South Africa offers a range of digital OOH formats suited to different campaign objectives, locations and creative requirements.
Images below are for illustrative purposes only. They are not specific to one location.
Digital billboards on the busiest corridors of Johannesburg and Cape Town allow South Africa campaigns to daypart creative, rotate share of voice and update messaging in-flight.
Digital billboard advertising in South Africa suits a brand that needs a serious roadside site and more than one message. Dayparts, offers and flight dates can all run on the same screen, with share of voice agreed before it goes live.
Landmark 3D anamorphic screens on South Africa's premium corridors turn a launch into a shareable moment. Sites around Johannesburg and Cape Town carry the most talked-about creative in the market.
3D anamorphic screen advertising in South Africa is a launch format. The creative is built for that wall, and the site is scarce enough that a well-timed booking becomes the picture people send on from the pavement.
Programmatic digital inventory across South Africa spans airport, roadside and retail networks. Buys are planned by audience, location and moment, with live delivery reporting throughout the campaign.
Programmatic screen advertising in South Africa puts digital out-of-home on the same plan as the rest of a digital buy: audience, place and time, with delivery you can read while the campaign is live.
Mall digital LED networks across Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban put creative in front of South Africa shoppers at every stage of the visit, from entrance to atrium to food court.
Mall digital screen advertising in South Africa follows the shopping trip, from the door to the atrium to the food court. Dayparts let a morning message give way to an evening one on the same loop.
Large-format atrium screens in Johannesburg and Cape Town's flagship malls give South Africa launches uninterrupted sightlines and long dwell time in the busiest retail environments.
Atrium screen advertising in South Africa uses dwell. Shoppers look up, sit and walk the same space, so a large screen in the volume of the mall is seen for longer than a corridor panel.
Stacked escalator LED panels in South Africa's premium malls put shoppers inside the creative, with the full ride to read and remember.
Escalator screen advertising in South Africa has a closed sightline. The ride is long enough for a product story, so the format can carry detail as well as a brand mark.
Digital entrance screens at the front door of South Africa's major malls carry the first-impression message for launches and seasonal campaigns.
Entrance screen advertising in South Africa takes the first impression of the visit. It suits seasonal launches and any message that needs to be in place before the shopper is inside.
Baggage reclaim screens at South Africa's major airports reach people who are standing at the belt. Travel, hospitality and premium brands use that wait.
Baggage reclaim screen advertising in South Africa reaches people who are standing still. Inbound dwell at the belt is one of the longer captive moments in a journey, which is why travel, hospitality and premium brands use it.
In-flight seatback and cabin media on flights serving South Africa deliver a rare, uninterrupted moment with a captive premium audience.
In-flight advertising in South Africa holds a premium audience for the length of the flight. Seatback and cabin media give luxury, finance and destination brands time to tell a story, not just show a mark.
Immigration hall digital panels across South Africa's major airports reach inbound audiences at the calmest, most engaged point of the arrival journey.
Immigration screen advertising in South Africa meets arrivals when the hall is calm and the audience is reading. It suits destination, finance and premium messages that need a moment of attention.
