What to know before advertising in Central.
Central is Hong Kong's financial heart, reaching white-collar and high-income decision-makers across banking, finance, professional services and multinationals. Out-of-home here carries some of the highest rates in the city, but buys dense reach of high-spend business decision-makers — ideal for financial services, insurance, luxury, commercial property and premium B2B.
The most visible sites cluster along the Central-to-Hong Kong Station walkway, the digital screens and escalator crowns around IFC and Landmark, and tram bodies and shelters on Des Voeux Road. Footfall peaks at lunch and after work. Central OOH typically starts around HK$30,000, with large digital facades much higher; the most cost-effective play is usually a digital lightbox paired with a tram body.
