What is Digital Billboards?

Digital billboards are large LED screens mounted on buildings and roadside structures, running advertising in a timed rotation. In Japan they cluster around major crossings and station exits in Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka and other city centres, where pedestrian volume is highest and people are stationary long enough to watch a full spot.

Why brands choose it

  • Scale and impact — the format people photograph and share
  • Creative can be swapped mid-campaign without reprinting or reinstallation
  • Motion holds attention where a static poster does not, even without sound

Best suited to

  • Brand launches and market entry, where visibility is the objective
  • Entertainment and product releases tied to a specific date
  • Campaigns that want a landmark placement to anchor the rest of the media
