Advertising arch

The second the clock starts

At any event, there is one place nobody can get around: the line. Every competitor passes through it, at the start as at the finish, and that is where the photographers, the timing volunteers and the families gather. An advertising arch marks that line above the course, not on the verge. For you, that means there is nothing left to explain on the day: the field lines up naturally underneath and the finish can be spotted from afar.

Trail run, sportive, opening event: a single gateway

The same structure serves as the start line in the morning and the finish line in the afternoon, and the same design can be reprinted for the following year. Outside sport, it opens an inauguration, the entrance to an agricultural show, a car boot sale or an outdoor fair. If you want a different message at the start and at the finish, tell us when you ask for a quote: that is decided before printing, never after. In practice, a single purchase covers several moments of the same day instead of throwaway signage.

The sponsor appears in every picture

What gets photographed at the finish is not a panel standing on the ground: it is the runner, arms raised, and whatever frames them. An arch puts your partners exactly in that frame, without any photographer having to try. So you can put a real value on what you offer your sponsors, with evidence to back it up, rather than promising them vague visibility on a flyer.

Read from the front, then from below

An arch is seen in two ways, and that is what sets it apart from any other signage. From a distance and head-on, it has to deliver a name in one second to someone running or riding. A few metres away, it is seen from a low angle, the angle of finish-line photos. So we place the essentials in the upper part, the part the lens catches whatever the angle. Text that is too thin or too low disappears as soon as a participant passes in front.

Printed and checked here, in the Gers

Tell us what time you are setting up and with how many volunteers: we agree with you on the installation method and the packaging before production starts, rather than leaving you to discover it on the morning of the event. Allow for some calm assembly time before the public arrives. Everything is printed and checked here, in the Gers, through 100% Made In Occitanie production that never leaves the area.
