Co-Op Billboard Advertising

Visit Hershey & Harrisburg is proud to offer our valued Partners a way to help you reach your local audience in an affordable and effective way! The Billboard Marketing Co-Op Program provides financial assistance, marketing expertise, and coordination of local billboard advertising.

VHH secures popular digital billboard locations in high traffic areas in the Hershey Harrisburg Region. This is your opportunity to promote YOUR business via digital billboard advertising. Inventory is available to investing Partners to purchase a calendar-year max of two (2) billboards for up to two (2) months each, with Visit Hershey & Harrisburg paying 50% of the cost of each board (up to $1,250). Board locations include Harrisburg (2), York (1), Lancaster (1), and a board between Hershey and Lebanon (1).

Billboards are co-branded, with Visit Hershey & Harrisburg creative on approximately 30% of design. The remainder of the board is dedicated to promoting YOUR business! To ensure consistency and efficiency, the billboard can be customized for your business with three elements within a defined design. You'll provide an image, business name or logo, and a Call-to-Action (CTA- web address, phone, etc.). Our team will take care of coordinating the design and ad placement. We’ll provide a proof to you for approval.
