Eye-Level Outdoor Advertising Across Tasmania
Your brand, worn by a person, standing right in front of them.
Walking Boards put your message at eye level in the busiest pedestrian spaces –
shopping centres, airports, festivals and city footpaths — with room to hand out samples along the way.

Why Walking Boards?
Advertising that walks straight up to your audience.
A Walking Board is worn by a person, so it goes exactly where the crowds are — through shopping centres, airport terminals, train stations, festivals and busy footpaths that vehicles and static signage can’t reach.
Because there’s a person carrying the message, a Walking Board isn’t passive. It can stop, chat, hand out flyers or samples, and answer questions on the spot — turning a billboard into a one-on-one moment with your audience.
Unlike most outdoor formats, Walking Boards work just as well indoors as out, making them a natural fit for shopping centres, transit hubs and indoor events as well as the street.

Checklist:
- Front and back coverage
A full front panel plus a smaller back panel give you one and a half panels of message space on a single walker. - Zero emissions
No vehicle required, so it’s a genuinely low-impact way to reach dense pedestrian crowds. - Sampling as a bonus
Add product sampling or flyer distribution on top of the board itself. - Backlit for stand-out
Panels can be backlit to create extra impact in low light or busy indoor spaces. - Indoor and outdoor
Equally at home in a shopping centre, an airport terminal or on the street.

Frequently Asked Questions About Walking Boards
How does walking board advertising work?
Advertisers supply artwork that is printed onto billboard panels. Trained promoters walk predetermined routes through high-traffic locations while displaying the advertisement and engaging with the public. This approach delivers high visibility and direct audience engagement.
Why choose walking board advertising over traditional billboards?
Walking board advertising reaches audiences where traditional billboards cannot, including pedestrian zones, festivals, beaches, shopping streets, inside shopping centres and events. Because the billboard moves with the audience, it delivers repeated exposure and stronger recall at eye level.
What are the benefits of walking billboard advertising?
Walking billboard campaigns offer several advantages:
High visibility at eye level
Direct interaction with potential customers
Flexibility to target specific locations
Ability to distribute samples or flyers
Memorable brand experiences
These campaigns are often used for product launches, brand activations, and event marketing.
Where can walking board advertising campaigns run?
Bike boards can operate in almost any location where bicycles are permitted, including:
CBDs and shopping strips
Festivals and sporting events
Beaches and tourist areas
University campuses
Entertainment precincts
This flexibility allows advertisers to target audiences where they spend their time.
Where are walking boards most effective?
Walking boards perform best in high foot-traffic areas, such as:
Shopping centres and retail strips
Event venues and stadiums
City centres and transport hubs
Tourism areas and festivals
They are designed to create face-to-face engagement with pedestrians.
Are walking board campaigns environmentally friendly?
Yes. Walking boards are zero-emission advertising formats powered by people rather than vehicles. This makes them an environmentally responsible alternative to many traditional outdoor advertising formats.
What size are walking billboard panels?
Walking billboards typically measure around 0.57 m x 1.44 m, making them large enough to be easily noticed while still allowing mobility through crowded pedestrian areas.
How many people can a mobile outdoor advertising campaign reach?
A well-planned mobile advertising campaign can reach thousands of people per day, depending on the route, event activity, and foot traffic. Strategic route planning maximises exposure and campaign effectiveness.
What types of businesses benefit from walking billboard advertising?
This advertising format works well for:
Retail stores and shopping centres
Restaurants and hospitality venues
Event organisers and festivals
Real estate and property launches
Universities and education providers
Tourism campaigns
The format is especially effective for local promotions and event marketing.
How long can a walking board campaign run?
Campaigns are highly flexible and can run for:
A single day
A weekend event
Several weeks
Ongoing brand awareness campaigns
Campaign duration can be tailored to your marketing goals and budget.
Can brand ambassadors interact with customers?

Success can be measured through:
Estimated impressions
Audience engagement
QR code scans or coupon redemptions
Foot traffic increases
Social media mentions
These metrics help determine campaign ROI.
What artwork is required for a walking board campaign?
Advertisers typically provide high-resolution artwork designed for outdoor visibility. Simple messaging, bold colours, and large fonts work best because the advertisement is seen while people are moving.
How targeted can mobile advertising campaigns be?
Bike and walking board campaigns can be highly targeted by selecting specific:
suburbs or neighbourhoods
events
demographics
competitor locations
This hyper-local targeting improves advertising effectiveness.
Are bike boards suitable for guerrilla marketing campaigns?
Yes. Because they are mobile, eye-catching, and interactive, bike boards are commonly used in guerrilla marketing and experiential marketing campaigns designed to generate buzz and social sharing.
Can bike boards and walking boards be used together in a campaign?
Yes. Many campaigns combine both formats to maximise reach:
Bike boards cover larger areas quickly
Walking boards engage pedestrians directly
Using both formats creates greater brand exposure and audience engagement.
Is walking board advertising available across Australia?
Yes. Mobile outdoor advertising campaigns can operate across many Australian cities and regions, allowing businesses to run local or national campaigns.
