Line the Street with a Banner That Reads Both Ways
Running down both sides of a main street, along a college campus, or through a downtown district, the pole banner is the tall, narrow one you have seen held off a street-light pole by a bracket. It prints on both faces of 18oz blackout vinyl, so it reads to cars and people coming from either direction. One is nice; a row of matching banners turns an ordinary street into a branded corridor for a season, a festival, or a campaign. A single 18" x 24" starts at $97.76, rated 4.6 out of 5 across 5 reviews.
Pole banners are large-format prints, so the price follows the size you build rather than a bulk quantity ladder, and you can order anywhere from 1 to 25 in one run to outfit a whole street or campus at once.

What Is a Pole Banner
A pole banner is a double-sided vinyl banner made to hang from a street light pole or a wall. You pick the display type, a street pole banner that clamps to a light pole or a wall mount banner for a building face, and the banner reads full color on both sides at once. That is the whole idea: cars and pedestrians see your message no matter which way they are heading. Cities line a main street with them, campuses run them along an entrance drive, and event teams use them for wayfinding down an approach. If you want a plain single-purpose banner for a fence or a wall instead, the Outdoor Banners cover that, and the pole banner is the version built to hang in a row on a post.
What Size Should a Pole Banner Be
Every pole banner is a tall, narrow portrait shape sized for a pole, and there are 13 of them. The default is 18" x 24", a compact banner for a lamppost or a shorter pole. From there the sizes climb through wider and taller options, all the way up to 30" x 72", a full two and a half feet wide by six feet tall for a wide avenue or a stadium approach. Because pole banners hang in matched rows, most people pick one size and order a set of it. All 13 sizes, plus the display type, bracket, grommet and wind-slit choices, are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
What Are Pole Banners Made Of
The material is 18oz blackout vinyl, and both the weight and the core matter. The 18oz vinyl is a thick, weatherproof stock that stands up to sun, rain, and months on a pole. The blackout part is the opaque layer in the middle: it stops light from passing through the banner, so the artwork on the back never shows through and washes out the front. That is exactly what a double-sided pole banner needs, because it prints full color on both faces at once. One face can carry your logo and the other an event or a message, and each reads clean and dense without the other bleeding into it. If you want that same double-sided blockout build in a standard hanging banner rather than a pole banner, the 2 Sided Blockout Banners use the same approach.
How Do Pole Banners Mount and Handle Wind
How a pole banner mounts is part of the order. First you choose the display type, a street pole banner or a wall mount banner. Then you pick the bracket, single or double, the arm that holds the banner out from the post and keeps it taut, and 4-corner grommets attach the banner to that hardware. The last piece is wind: a banner on an exposed pole catches gusts like a sail, so you can add wind slits, cuts in the face that let air pass straight through. There are 11 wind-slit settings, from none up, so you match the slits to how exposed the pole is. For a banner in a truly windy, open spot, the Mesh Banners take a different route, printing on a perforated vinyl that breathes across the whole face. On a pole banner you also decide the proof: send your file Straight To Production, or add a Free Online Proof to check it before it prints.
How Much Do Pole Banners Cost
Pole banners start at $97.76 for a single 18" x 24" banner on 18oz blackout vinyl. Because they are large format, the cost follows the size you build, so a taller 30" x 72" banner uses more vinyl and prices up from there, and there is no quantity ladder to climb. You can order anywhere from 1 to 25 banners in one run, which is how most people cover a whole street or campus in matching art. A rush turnaround adds to the total, and every change shows up in the live price before you commit.

How Do Pole Banners Compare to the Rest of the Range
Pole banners are the pick when you need a double-sided banner to hang in a row on a post, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a plain outdoor banner for a fence, a double-sided blockout banner for a wall, or a mesh banner for a windy spot, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up pole banners against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
How Fast Can You Get Pole Banners
Standard production for pole banners is 4 business days, and when a date sneaks up you can move up to 3-day, 2-day, next-day, or same-day rush. Same-day orders need to be approved by noon EST to ship that day, so build in that cutoff. Across all of 4OVER4, 99.8% of orders arrive on time and 82% ship early, so a hard date is not a gamble. You pick the speed in one dropdown and only pay for rush when you actually need it.

Pole Banners: Frequently Asked Questions
Can pole banners be read from both directions?
Yes. They print full color on both faces of 18oz blackout vinyl, so the banner reads to traffic coming from either direction down the street. The blackout core is an opaque layer that stops one printed side from ghosting through to the other, which is what keeps both faces looking clean.
What sizes are available?
There are 13 sizes, from 18 inches by 24 inches up to 30 inches by 72 inches, and every one is a tall portrait shape built to fit a street light pole. Choose the size against your bracket span and the height of the pole, since a banner that is too wide will not tension properly.
How many can I order and what do they cost?
One 18 inch by 24 inch banner starts at $97.76, and you can order anywhere from 1 to 25 in a single run. Price follows the finished size you build rather than a bulk quantity ladder, since these are large-format prints. A single run of 25 is enough to outfit a main street or a campus loop.
What hardware holds the banner on the pole?
You choose a single or a double bracket when you build the order, along with pole pockets and 4-corner grommets. A double bracket holds the banner at both the top and the bottom so it stays flat against the wind rather than swinging. Check what is already mounted on your poles before selecting.
How do the banners handle wind?
Wind slits are available with up to 11 settings, which are cuts that let gusts pass through the face instead of loading the whole banner and its bracket. Streets that funnel wind, coastal areas, and exposed campus walkways are where the slits earn their place.
How quickly can pole banners be produced?
Standard production is 4 business days, with same-day rush available. That makes a festival, a seasonal campaign, or a last-minute sponsor addition workable. Shipping transit time to your address is separate from the production option you pick.
Do I have to order a full street set at once?
No. The minimum is one banner, so you can replace a single damaged banner in an existing set or test one design before committing. That said, a row of matching banners is what turns an ordinary street into a branded corridor, and you can order up to 25 in one run.
