FLYER DISTRIBUTION AT FESTIVALS THIS SUMMER With over 15yrs experience in youth marketing and promotion, Out of Hand is firmly established as one of the leading distribution companies in the festival environment across the UK. Alongside our regular shop and music event distribution that we undertake on a weekly basis throughout the South West and Wales, we are attending the biggest and best music festivals this summer, targeting festival goers with our highly sought after flyer packs. Our packs typically contain 10-15 flyers, promoting forthcoming events, other festivals, music releases and products, all packaged together within a fold out posterzine cover sheet. Our packs are distributed to people before and after the event, and are the most effective physical promotion at any event – afterall, it’s the last thing a person is given as they leave an event… If your looking to target the active 18-30yr olds this summer in a relaxed environment, this is the most cost effective option to consider. Past clients have included Angel Festivals, Festival Republic, Slammin Vinyl, Ministry of Sound, SJM Concerts, Metropolis Music, Academy Group, BBC Radio 1, Eden Project, Sportsvision and many more.
