JCDecaux street furniture is perfectly positioned to meet these spectators and bargoers at eye level beside popular events, bars, and restaurants in the lead up to and during this weekend’s celebrations.

Our dense network allows for increased message frequency, letting audiences see the ad multiple times throughout the day. OOH is also a prime opportunity for leveraging contextuality including localized messaging or directional ads that can increase overall impact and connect with the community; according to Morning Consult, 45% of US urbanites find dynamic ads with timely information more interesting than typical ads.

While it can feel as though St. Paddy’s is all about drinking, non-alcohol advertisers also join in on the fun and “go green” with festive branding and a relatable tone that resonates with consumers’ own love of this beloved nationwide celebration.
