Location insights
Billings runs beneath the Rimrocks, the sandstone cliffs that wall the north side of Montana's largest city. Interstate 90 carries the heaviest through and freight traffic along the Yellowstone Valley, 24th Street West is the dominant retail strip from Rimrock Mall to Shiloh Crossing, and downtown draws office workers by day and brewery-district crowds along Montana Avenue at night. Two big hospital campuses make the city the region's medical hub, and MetraPark surges on event days. Buy the I-90 drive-time and the 24th Street retail peak.
Downtown / Montana Avenue and the main arteries surge 7:30–10 AM and 5–8 PM. Book exactly those hours and your frequency climbs for the same budget.
Billings Heights / Main Street and the city's malls hold heavy footfall from noon to evening, long windows where dwell and shopping intent, not rush, do the work.
24th Street West / Shiloh Crossing shifts from daytime to social and tourism after dark. Different audience, same screens, swap the creative, not the location.
Location intelligence summary
Billings doesn't have one rush hour; it has rotating audiences sharing the same streets. The only buying model that matches that is hourly: pay for the windows when your audience owns the city, skip the ones when it doesn't.
| Objective | Book these zones | Best hours |
|---|---|---|
| Brand launch | 24th Street West / Shiloh Crossing + Downtown / Montana Avenue | 6–11 PM |
| Commuter frequency | I-90 Corridor, Downtown / Montana Avenue | 7:30–10 AM · 5–8 PM |
| Retail foot traffic | Billings Heights / Main Street, 24th Street West / Shiloh Crossing | 12–8 PM |
| B2B / decision-makers | Medical Corridor, Downtown / Montana Avenue | Weekdays 9 AM–6 PM |
| Tourism & events | 24th Street West / Shiloh Crossing, MetraPark / East | 10 AM–8 PM |
A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Billings’s proven peak windows, and typically saves 30%+ versus a flat four-week flight.
Morning commuters read in 2 seconds; evening crowds dwell for minutes. Run different creative by hour on the same screens, even trigger swaps on weather or live data.
Every play is logged. Blindspot campaigns report verified plays and attribution, measured against control groups, not estimated reach.
The zones above already draw a specific buyer: healthcare around the Medical Corridor, home to Billings Clinic, Montana's largest health system with roughly 4,600 employees and the state's only Level I trauma center (see DOOH for healthcare), and oil refining along the I-90 Corridor toward Lockwood, where the Phillips 66 and Par Pacific refineries each process around 60,000 barrels of crude a day.

No minimums · no contracts · pay per verified play · hourly scheduling per screen
Four things move the price on any Billings screen: the format (pricing runs higher on MET Transit screens than on roadside & interstate digital), the zone (24th Street West / Shiloh Crossing carries the highest footfall premium), the daypart (peak commute and evening hours price above the overnight lull), and how far in advance you book, since the busiest zones and formats sell out first.
What a campaign costs
Because you pay per play and schedule by the hour, your budget buys the exposure you actually need, not filler plays, so it works as hard on a big campaign as on a small one, with no minimum. Here's what budgets realistically buy. Live numbers per screen are in the platform.
