A real guide, not an ad book
We cut the page count this year. Your ad sits beside the things locals open the guide for, so it gets seen instead of skimmed past.
Holiday events and light displays
Shop-local gift ideas
Holiday dining, treats and brunch

The guide goes live
It stays up through December 31, and we share it across our channels all season.
Ad sizes and specs
Everything you need to get your ad in on time. Each template is a blank Canva document already sized for you.
File type
JPG or PNG, 300 dpi recommended.
What to include
Logo or business name, address, contact info, and one main message. Ads crammed with text get skimmed past. Don't forget your offer or discount.
Your holiday offer
A discount, gift idea, holiday menu, or seasonal special. Tell readers how to redeem it, like a code or “mention Discover Bradenton.”
