About A-frame advertising

Businesses in the Brunswick Street Mall and Chinatown Mall can display one A-frame sign to advertise their products or services.  

A-frames (also known as sidewalk or ’sandwich’ boards) are portable outdoor signs that stand up like an easel to form a two-sided ‘A’ shape. 

You need a permit to display and A-frame sign.  

This helps to ensure the safety and comfort of visitors to the Valley Malls. Outdoor advertising should not obstruct passageways or detract from the appeal of the area.
