See us in Times Square!
In 2007, FWA ran a Times Square billboard during the Thanksgiving holiday for two weeks. FWA will be again running a Times Square billboard ad during the 2019 watermelon season. A 15-second ad will run 3 times an hour for 20 hours between April-June. FWA will also feature three different commercials between April-June. We anticipate that close to 8 million consumers will be reached in these 91 days!
The ad will be shown on a double-sided 56' x 29' LED billboard for a total of 1,624 sq. ft. of viewing space. The billboard will be located on 1500 Broadway and W 43rd St.
