FAQ

What is the difference between on-screen and off-screen advertising?

On-screen advertising consists of commercials shown on the cinema screen before a film. Off-screen advertising covers activities elsewhere in the cinema, such as branded popcorn packaging, product sampling and advertising stands in the foyer.

How much does a cinema campaign cost?

The cost depends on the number of cinema screens selected, the campaign duration and the popularity of the films before which the ads are shown.

Can I advertise before just one specific film?

Yes, we offer the option to purchase ad time for a specific title, which allows for very precise targeting (e.g., tech fans during sci-fi movies).

What is the reach of cinema advertising in Poland?

Each year, tens of millions of people attend Polish cinemas, and the most popular films attract more than 2–3 million viewers.

How long does it take to prepare a cinema campaign?

Bookings should be confirmed and advertising materials delivered about two weeks before the planned campaign launch.

Is advertising in independent cinemas worthwhile?

Yes. It is an excellent choice for brands seeking an educated niche audience or a prestigious local presence.
