DOOH Marketing Platform: Plan, Buy & Measure Digital Out-of-Home Campaigns
Fayetteville is a college town first — the University of Arkansas's flagship campus sits right in the middle of it — but it's also one corner of a much bigger picture. Drive 30 minutes up the same interstate and you'll pass through Springdale, Rogers, and Bentonville, home to some of the biggest corporate names in the country. Nielsen doesn't split that corridor into separate markets, and neither does this plan: a 30-mile radius around downtown Fayetteville captures the whole Northwest Arkansas footprint as one buyable audience.
That's the same logic behind digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising generally: a message on the screens already built into daily life — movie-theater lobbies, gas-pump displays, grocery aisles, bars, and doctors' offices — reaching people wherever they actually are instead of a browser tab they can close. Goldfish Ads plans, buys, and measures that inventory across 100+ US markets and 35+ venue types. Run it yourself in the self-serve platform and launch in under 24 hours, or hand the whole thing to our team to manage.
Plan
Search real inventory by market, venue type, and audience, then build a media plan in seconds.
Buy
Activate programmatically across every screen — run it yourself or let our team manage it, with no insertion-order back-and-forth.
Measure
Foot-traffic attribution, website lift, and brand studies close the loop on every campaign.
Here's exactly what's bookable across that Northwest Arkansas footprint right now.
Why Fayetteville Matters
Fayetteville is Arkansas's second-largest city and the anchor of the Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers metro, with 93,949 residents in the city proper and 546,725 across the metro[2]. Per Fayetteville's own employer rankings, the University of Arkansas is the city's single largest employer, with record fall enrollment reaching 34,161 students in 2025[5], and Washington Regional Medical Center — Northwest Arkansas's only community-owned, nonprofit health system — ranks second, based directly in the city[10][2]. Walmart and Tyson Foods also make that same Fayetteville employer list, at No. 3 and No. 9[2], but their actual corporate headquarters sit in neighboring cities on the same corridor — Walmart in Bentonville, ranked No. 1 on the Fortune 500[6], and Tyson Foods in Springdale, ranked No. 85 on the 2025 Fortune 500[7]. J.B. Hunt Transport Services isn't on Fayetteville's employer list at all; its headquarters is a third NWA city, Lowell, and it's a Fortune 500 company in its own right (No. 316, 2024)[9][8].
71.9% of Fayetteville workers drive alone to work, with an average commute of just 18.5 minutes[4] — short enough that gas-station, grocery, and convenience-store screens catch the same daily loop more than once a week. Movie-theater screens are the single largest venue category in the current plan, reflecting how much of that commute loop runs through the shared retail corridors along College Avenue and I-49.
On the calendar, Razorback football Saturdays at the 76,212-seat Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium[16] are the biggest recurring crowd event in town, and downtown's Lights of the Ozarks — roughly 500,000 LED lights strung across the historic square for its 32nd annual run[15] — turns the same Dickson Street bar and casual-dining screens into a late-November-through-New-Year's traffic magnet.

Fayetteville Billboard Sizes & Creative Formats
These are the actual screen sizes running in the live Fayetteville plan[1], counted as unique screens (not format instances). You don't build a file per screen — you build one creative per aspect ratio and export it to each resolution. The market is overwhelmingly 16:9 landscape, with a smaller block of 9:16 portrait and 7:2 spectacular-format screens.
| Resolution (px) | Aspect | Orientation | Screens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1920×1080 | 16:9 | Landscape | 979 |
| 1080×1920 | 9:16 | Portrait | 58 |
| 1400×400 | 7:2 | Landscape | 52 |
| 1280×720 | 16:9 | Landscape | 32 |
| 840×400 | 21:10 | Landscape | 3 |
| 810×270 | 3:1 | Landscape | 2 |

765 screens
Accept a static image — a single high-res JPG or PNG runs everywhere.
741 screens
Support audio, concentrated in movie-theater and gas-station venues.
Listed formats cover 1,126 of the 1,147 screens; the balance run less-common sizes or publisher-defined formats. Ship a 16:9 and a 9:16 master and you cover nearly the entire market.
How Much Does DOOH Cost in Fayetteville?
You don't need a national media budget or an agency contract to put a message in front of Fayetteville. Campaigns start for as little as $50 a day, with no long-term commitment attached — launch, pause, and adjust on your own schedule.
Every screen in the plan sells at one flat, transparent CPM (cost per thousand impressions): a movie-theater lobby screen near campus, a gas-pump display along I-49, or a bar on Dickson Street, all the same price. A bigger budget simply buys more impressions across the corridor, never access to a different tier of inventory. Scale up around a Razorback home game or Lights of the Ozarks, and scale back down whenever you want.
Start at $50/day
Enough to put a real message on Fayetteville screens — test the market before you scale.
No commitment
No annual contract, no minimum term. Run a single week or run all year.
One flat CPM
Every venue type priced the same — your budget buys impressions, not access tiers.

Screens Near the Places You Know
The same 1,147 screens, zoomed in on the Fayetteville landmarks you actually drive past. Each map shows the bookable digital screens within 1.5 miles of the spot[1] — the downtown square, Dickson Street, the University of Arkansas campus, Razorback Stadium, Bud Walton Arena, and out to Northwest Arkansas Mall.

Target Screens Along Any Route, Not Just a Radius
A radius treats every screen inside the circle the same. A route is different: hand us a real drive — a highway, a daily commute, a delivery loop — and Goldfish traces it with the Mapbox routing engine[19], then geofences every bookable screen within reach of that exact path, end to end.
Fayetteville's road grid gives three obvious candidates: I-49 running the length of the Northwest Arkansas corridor toward Bentonville; College Avenue (US-71B), the original business route through Fayetteville and on to Springdale; and US-62, the west-side arterial out toward Farmington and Prairie Grove. Pick one to see the screens hugging it and the venue mix along the whole corridor — every dot is a live, bookable screen from the same 30-mile plan[1].
0 bookable screens sit within 0.75 miles of I-49 North-South Spine (Fayetteville, AR → Bentonville, AR, 29 route miles). The mix along this corridor:
Corridor screens are filtered live from the 30-mile Fayetteville plan [1] against Mapbox driving geometry [19], counting each screen within the listed buffer of the route.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fayetteville DOOH
What is DOOH advertising?
Digital out-of-home (DOOH) is advertising on the digital screens you pass in the real world — highway billboards, gas-pump screens, gyms, grocery aisles, bars, and movie-theater lobbies. It is a format viewers cannot skip, block, or mute, and it reaches people while they are out living their day.
How much does DOOH advertising cost in Fayetteville?
Fayetteville DOOH campaigns start for as little as $50 a day with no long-term commitment. Every screen is sold at one flat, transparent CPM (cost per thousand impressions) — the same rate across every venue type — so a larger budget simply earns more impressions across the corridor rather than access to different inventory.
What types of screens can I book in Fayetteville?
The live 30-mile Fayetteville plan carries 1,147 active digital screens across venue types including movie theaters, grocery, doctor offices, gas stations, sports venues, casual dining, and roadside digital billboards.
How many people can a Fayetteville DOOH campaign reach?
The current Fayetteville plan delivers roughly 142.7 million monthly impressions, part of Nielsen DMA #96 (Fort Smith-Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers) with 352,410 TV homes.
Why does this plan cover a 30-mile radius instead of just the city of Fayetteville?
Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers, and Bentonville are separate cities that function as one Northwest Arkansas market and share a single Nielsen DMA. A 30-mile radius around downtown Fayetteville captures that whole sellable corridor — including the commute pattern between Fayetteville's Washington Regional and University of Arkansas campus and the Walmart, Tyson Foods, and J.B. Hunt offices headquartered in the neighboring cities up the same road.
How fast can a Fayetteville DOOH campaign launch?
Campaigns launch in under 24 hours — plan, buy, and go live the same day, instead of the weeks that traditional out-of-home buying takes. Run it yourself in the Goldfish Ads platform, or have our team plan and manage it for you.
