Our leaflet distribution services in London

We offer our poster and flyer services from across London, from leaflet distribution in Soho, Covent Garden and across Central London to poster campaigns in areas as varied as Camden, Wimbledon and Hackney. Our successful campaigns have helped advertise hundreds of shows across the UK – you can find a list of some of the people we’ve worked with here.

Targeted by where your audience lives

We build routes from data, not hunches: booker postcodes from venues' own customer reports where they share them, Census 2021 demographics for every London postcode district, and a map of more than 140,000 businesses and community spaces across Greater London. Our street team records every site that takes a poster — and every one that says no — so each campaign starts from the places that have said yes before.

Our poster distribution in London

Poster distribution in London is a huge deal. You don’t have to walk around central London for long before you spot a poster for a West End show, a concert at the O2, or a flyer for a drag brunch in a local bar. While theatre campaigns are often online, audiences love to see eye-catching show posters to take pictures and pose in front of, or collect flyers as a memento of their London theatre experiences. They’re a huge factor in brand recognition and awareness. Our London flyer distribution services allow theatre companies and artists to engage with their audiences and reach out to new ones across the city.

Frequently asked questions about leaflet distribution

Is delivering leaflets worth it?

In a digitally saturated landscape, entry and exit hand-to-hand flyering creates a moment of human contact that catches people when they’re most receptive. Increasing awareness of your show with posters and flyer drops alongside digital and social media advertising is key to making sure people know what’s going on and where. Having your leaflet handed out or posted through the doors of your potential audience members takes the show to them. With all these forms of print distribution, audiences can be converted into customers, with leaflets getting passed onto friends and family who will then potentially convert.

What is the success rate of leaflet distribution?

We have teams across London who can put your poster or flyer in the hands of potential audience members with ease. Many of our clients report booking spikes after hand-to-hand distribution, and audience surveys indicate that postering and flyer drops are still key to catching audience’s attention, building awareness and selling tickets.

We won't quote a single conversion rate for flyers — honest numbers vary too much by show, area and audience. What we can do is check: wherever a venue shares its sales reports, we compare ticket sales in the days after each session with the week before, and your report shows when a rise beat the normal day-to-day pattern. Of course, building brand recognition leads to people connecting with you through other channels too.

How much does leaflet distribution cost in London?

The price for a distribution campaign depends on what services you require. We offer full design, printing, and distribution services with our marketing and PR campaigns – contact our team today to find out how we can help you and get an accurate cost for what you need.

How many leaflets can I deliver in one day?

Depending on the area/event and how long we are working for, you can expect to deliver around 100 leaflets per flyering session, or up to 800 across a whole day!

Recent examples of our print distribution work include campaigns for Ride at the Charing Cross Theatre and Macbeth at Southwark Playhouse.

Print distribution FAQs

What is theatre flyer and leaflet distribution?

It puts your show's print in front of the right audiences — hand-to-hand flyering, venue postering and targeted door drops across London.

Does flyering still work for theatre?

Used well and targeted to the right venues and audiences, flyer, leaflet and poster distribution remains an effective, measurable part of a theatre campaign.

How much does leaflet distribution in London cost?

It depends on volume, locations and format, so we quote per campaign. Get in touch for costs.

Do you distribute outside London?

Our street team and print distribution cover London and the surrounding areas — it's where we know the streets, the venues and the local rules. Our PR and marketing campaigns run across the UK and internationally.

Can you hand out flyers in London — is it allowed?

Yes. Hand-to-hand flyering is well established across London's theatre districts. Rules on leafleting and fly-posting vary between boroughs and private estates, so we keep track of them and plan every session to work within them.

How effective is hand-to-hand flyering?

It depends on the show and the spot, which is why we measure it rather than quote an industry average. Wherever a venue shares its sales reports, we compare sales in the days after each session with the week before, and only count a rise that beats the normal day-to-day pattern. Street-team feedback from every session tells you how the print was received.

How many flyers can you hand out?

Around 100 leaflets per hand-to-hand session, or up to about 800 across a full day, across central London (Soho, Covent Garden) plus areas such as Camden, Wimbledon and Hackney.

Which areas of London do you cover?

We distribute across central London — including Soho and Covent Garden — and areas such as Camden, Wimbledon and Hackney, and can cover north, south, east and west London. Tell us where your audience is and we'll build the route around it.

Comedy is one of the biggest reasons acts and producers come to us for distribution — see our comedy PR, marketing and distribution.
