Leipzig DOOH · Petersstraße · Hauptbahnhof · Karli · June 2026
Mall screens are Leipzig's largest format, from the Petersstraße shopping core to the Promenaden Hauptbahnhof to the Karli student strip: 90 screens at about $0.77 a play. A billboard play runs about $0.17, across 231 screens and 5 formats in total. Priced per play, booked by the hour.
Leipzig billboard and DOOH (digital out-of-home) costs span from a few cents per play on urban panels to premium Petersstraße, Südvorstadt and landmark networks. On Blindspot, Leipzig screens are booked by the hour and priced per play, entry plays start around $0.34, with no contracts or minimums.
The smart Leipzig play isn't one screen for a month. It's the right screens at the right hours: the arteries at commute peak, the malls through the afternoon, the nightlife and tourist cores after dark.

The media estate · operator partners

Formats
From a highway bulletin to a single mall screen, Blindspot puts Leipzig's digital out-of-home and classic OOH formats on one map, each priced per play and bookable by the hour. The formats that matter here:
Large-format LED on highways, bridges and boulevards, motion, dayparting and dynamic triggers.
Pedestrian-scale panels and citylights in high-footfall retail and downtown corridors.
Highway and arterial bulletins built for commuter frequency on the busiest routes.
High-intent shoppers from midday to evening across the city's retail destinations.
LVB tram and S-Bahn Mitteldeutschland screens plus stations and place-based screens with captive dwell.
Landmark and spectacular placements for brand statements in the city's signature locations.
Location insights
Leipzig runs on its arcades and its trams. Mornings pour commuters out of the vast Hauptbahnhof, Europe's largest terminus station by floor area, and onto the LVB network toward the Petersstraße shopping core and the Mädler-Passage; lunch fills the Markt and the historic arcade system; evenings pull the student crowd down the Karli strip in Südvorstadt and out to the creative studios of Plagwitz. The Buchmesse and the music calendar keep events busy. Buy the rail-fed morning peak and the Petersstraße retail hours, lean on the Karli for the evening.
Promenaden Hauptbahnhof 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.
Südvorstadt and the city's malls hold heavy footfall from noon to evening, long windows where dwell and shopping intent, not rush, do the work.
Petersstraße shifts from daytime to social and tourism after dark. Different audience, same screens, swap the creative, not the location.
Location intelligence summary
Leipzig 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 | Petersstraße + Promenaden Hauptbahnhof | 6–11 PM |
| Commuter frequency | Markt, Promenaden Hauptbahnhof | 7:30–10 AM · 5–8 PM |
| Retail foot traffic | Südvorstadt, Petersstraße | 12–8 PM |
| B2B / decision-makers | Plagwitz, Promenaden Hauptbahnhof | Weekdays 9 AM–6 PM |
| Tourism & events | Petersstraße, Zentrum-Süd | 10 AM–8 PM |
A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Leipzig’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: media and broadcasting professionals through Südvorstadt, home to MDR (Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk), the public broadcaster for Saxony, Thuringia and Saxony-Anhalt with about 2,000 staff at its Leipzig headquarters, and publishing and events audiences through Promenaden Hauptbahnhof, the route into the city for visitors to the Leipzig Book Fair, the second largest book fair in Germany (see DOOH for Events).

Pricing · updated June 2026
Per-play prices, not CPM mysteries. Live per-screen pricing and real-time availability are on every card in the platform; the ranges below reflect typical Blindspot pricing as of June 2026.
| Format | Price per play | Typical presence | Why it works |
|---|---|---|---|
| Petersstraße retail digital | from ~$0.56 per play | $100 buys hourly bursts on the main shopping street | pedestrian retail dwell |
| Promenaden Hauptbahnhof digital | from ~$0.52 per play | the station-mall interchange | shopper and commuter reach |
| Markt and arcade digital | from ~$0.48 per play | the central arcade system | civic and high-dwell audiences |
| Karli student digital | from ~$0.44 per play | the Südvorstadt nightlife spine | younger going-out crowds |
| LVB tram screens | from ~$0.36 per play | platforms across the tram network | walk-up urban commuters |
No minimums · no contracts · pay per verified play · hourly scheduling per screen
Four things move the price on any Leipzig screen: the format (pricing runs higher on LVB tram screens than on petersstraße retail digital), the zone (Petersstraße 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.
Transit test
A week of morning and evening bursts on the rail-fed centre into Petersstraße.
Multi-zone Leipzig push
Petersstraße, the Hauptbahnhof and the Markt running together across peak dayparts.
Leipzig flagship
Full Petersstraße and central saturation timed to the Buchmesse and music-festival weeks.
FAQ
No. Blindspot books time on screens that are already installed and permitted by their media-owner operators, Stroer, JCDecaux Deutschland, Wall among them, so you're leasing airtime on an existing structure, not erecting a new one.
Specs vary by screen: orientation, resolution and file format differ from one panel to the next. Every screen shows its exact requirements in the platform before you upload, so there's no separate spec sheet to track down before you book.
Yes. Every Leipzig screen on Blindspot is bookable by the hour, with no minimum contract and no retainer. You pick the exact windows, so you can buy the morning commute on Promenaden Hauptbahnhof, the afternoon retail stretch around Südvorstadt, or the evening social hours in Petersstraße, and skip everything between. Because you pay per play instead of for a fixed four-week flight, the same budget concentrated into proven peak windows buys more useful frequency than the same money spread across every hour including the overnight ones nobody sees. Availability and the per-play price are visible before you commit, and you can start with one screen and one daypart.
Blindspot puts the bookable digital out-of-home screens across Leipzig on a single map: roadside and boulevard LED, street-level panels and citylights, transit and station screens, mall and place-based displays, and landmark placements, all priced per play and bookable by the hour. That spans zones from Petersstraße through to Zentrum-Süd & Connewitz. The underlying screens are owned and run by media operators such as Stroer, JCDecaux Deutschland and Wall, and Blindspot books time on their existing, already-permitted structures rather than reselling a fixed package. You see each screen, its zone, its per-play price and its live availability before committing, so you are choosing specific screens and hours rather than buying an unspecified network bundle.
Often within hours: upload, pass creative pre-check, and digital screens need no printing or installation. Content approval typically averages around two business days across networks.
More than most people expect, because you are buying plays rather than weeks. A $500 budget in Leipzig typically funds a multi-day hourly presence on a high-traffic corridor such as Promenaden Hauptbahnhof, a concentrated burst across the busiest retail and transit screens at peak hours only, or thousands of plays on central urban panels where the per-play price is lowest. At entry prices around $0.34 per play, the arithmetic is straightforward and visible before you commit. What it will not stretch to is 24/7 coverage of a landmark spectacular, and that is the point of hourly buying: concentrate a small budget where and when it is seen instead of thinning it across hours with no audience.
No. Blindspot has no minimums, retainers or platform fees; you can run a focused hourly burst on a single screen or a full multi-zone Leipzig campaign.
