Alameda, home to about 76,000 people, is an island city in San Francisco Bay just west of Oakland. Its Victorian neighborhoods, Park Street and Webster Street business districts and Robert W. Crown Memorial State Beach give it a small-town feel, and the Park Street Spring Festival and other street fairs draw crowds each year.
The former Naval Air Station has been redeveloped as Alameda Point, home to the USS Hornet Museum, Spirits Alley distilleries and new housing, and ferries run from the island to San Francisco. Traffic onto the island funnels through the Posey and Webster tubes and a few bridges from Oakland, so most billboard campaigns reach Alameda residents on nearby I-880 and the approaches to the island.


Billboard advertising in Alameda is an effective way to build brand awareness across Alameda and the East Bay. Prices on BillboardsIn range from about $600 to more than $4,000 per month. Cost depends mostly on location, traffic and visibility, along with board size, static vs. digital format and campaign length. Design, printing, shipping and installation are included in your total price, and our design team and templates make artwork easy.
The busiest corridors for static and digital billboards serving Alameda include I-880 in Oakland, the Webster and Posey tubes (CA-260), CA-61, Park Street, Webster Street and Doolittle Drive toward Oakland International Airport.

Location: Inventory on the island is limited, so look at I-880 near the tubes and Broadway in Oakland and Doolittle Drive near the airport to reach Alameda drivers.
