ADVERTISING RULES, PROPERTY REQUIREMENTS & APPROVALS AT YAS MALL ABU DHABI
Advertising at Yas Mall is subject to applicable requirements together with conditions relating to the specific property location, advertising format, media owner or operator and individual advertising asset.
Advertising across the wider Yas Island district may involve different properties, media operators and requirements from those applicable to advertising within Yas Mall.
Authorised Advertising Locations & Property Approval
Advertising should use authorised media assets and approved property locations. The presence of a mall entrance, atrium, parking area, entertainment venue, hotel, road or visitor destination does not automatically mean advertising inventory is available at that location.
Current inventory and applicable property requirements should be confirmed for the specific advertising asset before campaign booking or artwork production.
Advertising Dimensions, Positioning & Artwork
Display dimensions, positioning, orientation and creative specifications depend on the individual advertising asset and property location.
Artwork should comply with applicable content requirements together with the technical and creative specifications provided for the selected media placement. Certain advertising categories may require additional documentation or approvals.
Digital OOH Requirements
Digital screens may have asset-specific requirements covering dimensions, file formats, animation, creative duration, scheduling, creative rotation, share of voice and other operating conditions.
Exact specifications should be confirmed for the selected digital screen or network before creative production.
Installation, Structural & Property Requirements
Atrium displays, hanging banners, static media, entrance branding, activations and other physical advertising formats may have property-specific structural, installation, access, maintenance and removal requirements.
Production and installation should follow the specifications applicable to the authorised advertising asset and the requirements of the relevant property or media operator.
Surrounding Yas Island Advertising Requirements
Advertising outside Yas Mall, including roadside media, theme park environments, hotels, event venues and other Yas Island properties, may be subject to different media owners, operators and approval requirements.
Availability, specifications and requirements should therefore be confirmed separately for each selected advertising asset.
Important: Advertising inventory, technical specifications, property requirements and approval procedures may change. Final requirements should always be confirmed for the specific advertising location and format before artwork production, installation or campaign booking.
