Cleveland, known as "The Forest City" and the "Rock and Roll Capital of the World," is home to about 360,000 residents and a Northeast Ohio metro area of more than 2 million people. World-class healthcare at the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals, a revitalized downtown, and passionate sports fans make billboard advertising in Cleveland an effective way to reach a large, loyal audience. Downtown, the Flats East Bank, Ohio City, Tremont, Gordon Square, University Circle, and nearby Lakewood each offer a distinct audience for targeted campaigns.
Cleveland's highways carry heavy commuter traffic across the region. Billboards on I-90, I-71, I-77, I-480, I-490, and the Shoreway (SR-2) reach drivers throughout Cuyahoga County, and boards near Cleveland Hopkins International Airport reach travelers. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Playhouse Square, one of the largest performing arts centers in the country, draw visitors year-round, while Progressive Field, home of the Guardians, Huntington Bank Field, home of the Browns, and the Cavaliers' downtown arena bring in huge crowds for targeted outdoor advertising.
Billboards are ideal for building brand awareness and reaching a broad audience, and location is key. Some of the best spots for billboards in Cleveland are high-traffic areas near Progressive Field, Huntington Bank Field, Euclid Avenue, the Cleveland Clinic, and I-90. Also consider your target audience, the type of billboard (static bulletin or digital billboard), size, and design.
