Location insights

Where Marseille moves

The A7, A50 and the A55 coastal motorway pour traffic toward the Vieux-Port, with the L2 ring linking them around the city. La Canebière rises from the harbour through the centre, and RTM metro lines 1 and 2 cross at Saint-Charles and Castellane. Retail peaks midday on Rue Saint-Ferréol; the Old Port and Joliette draw evening and cruise-day crowds. OM match days at the Vélodrome surge the south. Buy the peaks, skip the dead hours.

La Canebière 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.

Retail plateau, all afternoon

Joliette and the city's malls hold heavy footfall from noon to evening, long windows where dwell and shopping intent, not rush, do the work.

Evenings change the audience

Vieux-Port shifts from daytime to social and tourism after dark. Different audience, same screens, swap the creative, not the location.

Location intelligence summary

One city, several audiences a day

Marseille 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.

Match the tide, not the calendar

A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Marseille’s proven peak windows, and typically saves 30%+ versus a flat four-week flight.

Creative by daypart

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.

Proof, not vibes

Every play is logged. Blindspot campaigns report verified plays and attribution, measured against control groups, not estimated reach.
