Advertise @ NWTheatre
Want to keep NWTheatre’s operations going strong?
We’re happy to provide listings free of charge, without any pay-to-play arrangements. But we’d love your financial support while putting an extra spotlight on your company’s work.
Read on for a few ways to do that.
To discuss availability or any specific ideas or questions, please contact us.
Placement Options & Rates
Pricing may increase during the peak holiday and future seasons. Early advertisers receive the very best deals and availability for those seasons.
Placement weeks run from Sunday through Saturday (formerly Monday through Sunday).
Banner Ad: Top Real Estate
Submit ad image as 728 x 80 pixels. Price: $135 per week.
The banner is the first to reach visitors on NWTheatre’s home page, and it’ll be the same across other key pages, too — performance calendar, reviews, and more. And unlike other sites, here your ad does not rotate with others: once you reserve that spot, it’s yours, for the time period (a week or more) you’ve reserved it.
Banner placement includes additional banner-size image placement within NWTheatre’s Weekly Roundup throughout the ad run, at no added cost.
Note: There is only one banner ad, so act fast to reserve your spot. The banner section is reserved through most of 2024; inquire early about specific dates.
Top of the Sidebar: Great Spotlight
Submit image as 400 x 300 pixels. Price: $60 per week.
The top sidebar ads are prominent eye-catchers for visitors on NWTheatre’s home page, and they’ll be the same across other key pages, too — performance calendar, reviews, and more. And unlike other sites, here your ad does not rotate with others.
Top sidebar placement includes an additional banner-size image placement within NWTheatre’s Weekly Roundup, at no added cost (please submit that additional ad image as 728 x 80 pixels).
The top sidebar section will be limited to no more than 5 ads at a time. This set of ads appears above anything else in the sidebar (on computer view), or above everything else in the lower section (mobile view).
Pay-What-You-Choose Sidebar: For Every Budget
Submit image as 400 x 300 pixels or 400 x 225 pixels. Price: you specify.
Advertising on NWTheatre is designed to be accessible to all sizes of shows, and all budget levels. For that reason, NWT offers local theatre orgs the option of pay-what-you-choose ads in the lower sidebar. As with the other ads, your ad does not rotate with others and is designed to be eye-catching and allow your show to stand out to site visitors.
When reserving your ad spot, specify the rate that works for your budget (suggested amount: $25/week).
General Parameters
All ads should abide by a general good neighbor standard — e.g., truthful and accurate in content; clear and artistic in design; reasonably appropriate for all audiences; and not disparaging of any people, groups, or other companies. NWTheatre retains the right to refuse any ad, for those or any other concerns, in its sole discretion. Links should go to a working, safe link, to a site over which the advertiser (company) has control. Ads should be easy to read for visitors and should, for example, avoid very loud colors, small text, and script fonts. NWTheatre will do its very best to ensure all ads appear as agreed and intended; but in the event of a technology or human failing, any damages are limited to a refund of advertising price.
Bottom line: NWTheatre values its relationships with theatre companies and the arts community, and will deal in good faith; and expects its advertisers will, too.
Non-Theatre Advertising
Ads from businesses that are not theatre or dance performance companies will be considered on a limited, case-by-case basis, for certain placements (excluding pay-what-you-choose ads). In general, companies with a longstanding or close relationship to artistic communities will get highest priority. Examples include: restaurants and bars who serve arts communities or events, theatre artists who create other products, film festivals and other arts genres.
