Affordable & Unique Advertising Opportunities To Reach Your Target Customers..

The Market Place Theatre & Arts Centre in Armagh is one of Ireland’s premier venues and is a hive of activity with a year-round programme of events, conference facilities, and bars and restaurant that attract a wide range of customers who could be in your target market.

The Theatre offers a range of affordable, flexible and dynamic advertising and sponsorship opportunities to businesses and companies of all sizes and we can be flexible to suit all kinds of marketing and advertising budgets.

Brochure Advertising

The Market Place Theatre Season Brochure offers affordable opportunities for all types of businesses, small, medium or large and all sizes of marketing budgets.

It is a high-quality, high-end publication with a circulation of 100,000 copies. The theatre’s mailing list consists of over 30,000 frequent-spending consumers who are targeted twice per annum so your advert goes to a personalized mailing only with no junk mailings.

The theatre brochures are divided into January to June and July to December events and are circulated two months before events commence so the shelf-life of the brochure is some eight months, compared to a day, week or month compared to most other types of advertising.

Included in the cost is a complimentary link on the theatre’s website which receives 200,000 hits per month and has 100,000 users per annum.  

Brochure advertising is offered on an annual basis with options for half or full pages.

Plasma Screen Advertising

The Market Place Theatre welcomes over 100,000 visitors per annum to the venue including theatergoers, workshops and classes members, conference users and delegates, art gallery visitors, customers using the bar, restaurant and entertainment facilities as well as the public generally.

Situated at the heart of the venue in the main foyer is the theatre’s plasma screen which gives visitors information on the theatre, its facilities and programme. It is located in the busiest part of the venue, the theatre box office, and provides a unique opportunity to advertise businesses and products to frequent and high-spending visitors as well as business people and organizations attending conferences.

Simple, yet effective, the plasma screen can be a window of opportunity to large, medium and small businesses and organizations.

The plasma screen can be viewed by customers throughout the week and weekend during theatre opening hours [six days per week] and adverts are rotated to give the maximum impact.
