Australia is built for outdoor.

Difficult to reach audiences can be targeted with outdoor advertising. An active outdoor advertisement presence can support a favorable image. Outdoor can provide mass reach, geographic targeting and frequency as well as visual and emotional engagement. In Q2 2024, more than 76% of OOH revenue came from digital billboards. The rise of programmatic, mobile technology such as QR codes or NFC, and regional expansion have driven the creation of more than 126 new sites as well as substantial investment in digital infrastructure, data, sustainable energy, and creative production. Australia remains an sought-after market for creative outdoor media innovation and large-scale thorough brand visibility solutions that deliver on brand objectives and measurable marketing outcomes because of the country's multicultural communities and its interest in events, festivals, and international tourism.
