Spotify advertising possibilities
By using advertising on Spotify you reach your target audiences in several ways. The big advantage of using Spotify ads for festivals is that it offers more and better options to reach your audience. For example, Spotify distinguishes musical content for artists, concerts and festival and non-musical content for brands, companies and products.
Because of the big amount of 153 million ad-based users, Spotify advertising offers a wide range of targeting options, such as fans of artists that are on your festival line-up, musical genres, moods or demographic data and locations. Advertising on Spotify has the following options:
AUDIO CAMPAIGN
In audio campaigns, Spotify advertising offers the option to choose Audio Everything, which resembles a radio commercial which plays in between songs. Another option is using sponsored playlists which put your brand in the limelight.
PODCAST CAMPAIGN
By using in-stream ad placements named Streaming Ad Insertions, Spotify offers podcast specific ads that will be played while someone is listening to a podcast. Spotify also offers an option for sponsored podcasts in specific market areas.
VIDEO CAPMAIGN
Do you want to showcase your festival in a visual way? Spotify advertisements can be made with various sorts of video content. Video Takeover plays in between songs like audio commercials. Another option are Sponsored Sessions which offer a 30 minute ad-free experience after watching a video or trailer from your festival.
