In addition, we will not display any posters that do not have a direct link with a show / event at Edinburgh's August festivals. So for example: no merchandise, DVDs and tour dates. If you are unsure of anything, please feel free to send us a copy of your artwork before going to production and we can advise if there are any sensitive locations or other external factors that may affect your display.

LABELING YOUR ARTWORK

ORDER NUMBER - SHOW NAME - POSTER SIZE Example: 98845 - Your Show Name - 60x40.pdf

SUPPLYING YOUR ARTWORK TO US

To supply your artwork to us, please log into your customer account. Within that section, select your order and then upload artwork directly within the site. Please upload single page files only. All artwork is directly linked to your order number. Please don't email or supply your artwork via file transfer services unless by prior agreement with us, as they might get lost / not be dealt with in timely manner as we are dealing with thousands of different artwork files.

Please contact us if you have any artwork queries.

SPARES / REPLACEMENT POSTERS

Your outdoor advertising booking includes the allocation of the advertising space to you for a four week period and the production of ONE poster to fill that space.

When you book your poster advertising space, it is up to you to ensure we have the artwork to display in that space. Once we have undertaken the production of your initial order, if any of your posters gets damaged or vandalised during the four week display period, it is your responsibility (and at your own cost) to purchase replacement posters from Out of Hand to ensure your continued advertising presence in that space.

We strongly advise you purchase spare poster boards in advance of the Fringe, in case of damage during the in-charge display period. If we have your pre-printed spare poster boards available, we can usually replace your damaged item on the street within 24hrs. If you choose not to purchase spare replacement poster boards when you make your initial order before the Fringe starts then it will take longer to replace any damaged poster boards - allow an extra 3-4 working days from placing the order online.

For more information or to discuss your individual artwork requirements please contact our team:

fringe@outofhand.co.uk
0117 953 6363

ARTWORK AMENDMENT COSTS

If your artwork hasn't gone to print and you need to change your artwork after you have supplied it to us, there will be a cost of £20 + vat per piece of artwork, per format.
Eg, if you want to change artwork for a 4-sheet and a railing board (but both the same show), the cost is £40 + vat.

If your artwork has gone to print and you need to change your artwork after you have supplied it to us, you'll need to pay the ‘Spares' cost to reprint your advertising.

(Eg, if you want to change your 4 sheet artwork, cost is £55 + vat per poster).

TEMPLATES

Just select the format you need and download it here - if you have any queries relating to the design or supply of your artwork, please contact us at fringe@outofhand.co.uk or 0117 953 6363.
