Question

What's the best poster size for an indoor event?

Answer

For most indoor events, 18" x 24" is the sweet spot. It reads clearly from across a room yet still fits standard frames and tabletop easels, so it works for check-in tables, sign-in areas, and program displays.

  • 18" x 24": the all-purpose event size, easy to frame and easy to carry.
  • 24" x 36": step up to this for hallways, lobbies, and entrances where people view from farther back.
  • 11" x 17": handy for tabletop schedules, menus, or directional signs near the action.
