STANDARD BANNER SIZES
All digital banners should contain a strong ‘call to action’ (CTA) and use the Live Nation
Horizontal Logo. Recommended language for CTA is ‘Get Tickets Now’ or for pre-sale,
‘Get Tickets Friday’. This is preferred, to “On Sale… “ which only describes the event
GET TICKETS FRIDAY instead of telling a fan to act Now, Today, or on Friday. The CTA background and font
choice can be changed based on admat creative.
CITI® sponsor banners require rounded corners at bottom, as seen in sample.
This is the preferred lock up for digital banners on both display and mobile.
