Trondheim DOOH · Nidaros · Bakklandet · July 2026
The thousand-year city near 218,000 on the Trondheimsfjord, from Torvet and Nordre gate to Bakklandet, Solsiden and the NTNU campus, bookable by the hour, priced per play, matched to how Trondheim actually moves.
Trondheim billboard and DOOH (digital out-of-home) costs span from a few cents per play on urban panels to premium Torvet / Midtbyen, NTNU Gloshaugen / Campus and landmark networks. On Blindspot, Trondheim screens are booked by the hour and priced per play, entry plays start around $0.30, with no contracts or minimums.
The smart Trondheim 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.
Billboard ranking points
Scored by Blindspot's location intelligence on visibility, dwell time, and footfall (directional, 1–10). Every one is bookable by the hour on the platform.
Torvet, with Olav Tryggvason on his column, and the Midtbyen grid around it hold the civic and shopping heart of central Norway.
The Nordre gate pedestrian street and the Trondheim Torg mall carry the densest daily foot traffic between the fjord and the river.
The wooden lanes of Bakklandet across the Gamle Bybro and the Solsiden dock terraces carry the cafe, dining and going-out crowd.
The Gloshaugen campus of NTNU and the SINTEF labs beside it carry one of Scandinavia's densest student and research flows.
Lerkendal stadium, home of record champions Rosenborg, surges on match nights and anchors a steady southern neighbourhood flow.

Location insights
Trondheim was Norway's Viking capital, founded by Olav Tryggvason in 997, and Nidaros Cathedral, raised over the grave of St. Olav, is still the church where the country's monarchs are consecrated. Today the wide Midtbyen grid around Torvet and the Nordre gate pedestrian street carries the daily shopping flow, the old wharves and the Gamle Bybro lead to the wooden lanes of Bakklandet, and the Solsiden dock fills with terraces every light summer evening. NTNU and SINTEF make the city Norway's technology capital, more than 37,000 students deep, and Lerkendal roars for Rosenborg. Screens on Torvet, Nordre gate and the Metrobuss spine catch the most repeat eyes.
Nordre gate / Trondheim Torg 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.
NTNU Gloshaugen / Campus and the city's malls hold heavy footfall from noon to evening, long windows where dwell and shopping intent, not rush, do the work.
Torvet / Midtbyen shifts from daytime to social and tourism after dark. Different audience, same screens, swap the creative, not the location.
Location intelligence summary
Trondheim 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 | Torvet / Midtbyen + Nordre gate / Trondheim Torg | 6–11 PM |
| Commuter frequency | Bakklandet / Solsiden, Nordre gate / Trondheim Torg | 7:30–10 AM · 5–8 PM |
| Retail foot traffic | NTNU Gloshaugen / Campus, Torvet / Midtbyen | 12–8 PM |
| B2B / decision-makers | Lerkendal / Rosenborg, Nordre gate / Trondheim Torg | Weekdays 9 AM–6 PM |
| Tourism & events | Torvet / Midtbyen, E6 / Omkjoringsveien | 10 AM–8 PM |
A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Trondheim’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: higher education and applied research around NTNU Gloshaugen / Campus, home to NTNU, Norway's largest university with more than 40,000 students, plus SINTEF, one of Europe's largest independent research institutes with roughly 1,400 staff in Trondheim, and sports and events around Lerkendal / Rosenborg, home to Rosenborg BK, Norway's most decorated football club with a record 26 league titles, playing at Lerkendal Stadion (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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Torvet & Midtbyen digital | from ~$0.51 per play | the central square grid | civic and shopping crowds |
| Nordre gate digital | from ~$0.46 per play | the pedestrian spine | the busiest foot-traffic heart |
| Solsiden & Bakklandet digital | from ~$0.41 per play | the dock and old lanes | dining and evening audiences |
| Campus digital | from ~$0.37 per play | the Gloshaugen plateau | student and research audiences |
| Ring-road & transit screens | from ~$0.30 per play | the E6 and AtB network | drive-time and transit commuters |
No minimums · no contracts · pay per verified play · hourly scheduling per screen
Four things move the price on any Trondheim screen: the format (pricing runs higher on ring-road & transit screens than on torvet & Midtbyen digital), the zone (Torvet / Midtbyen 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.
Midtbyen test
A week of hourly bursts around Torvet and Nordre gate.
Multi-zone Trondheim push
