TIMES SQUARE BOOK FEATURES
Your Story Deserves a City-Sized Spotlight.
From your book cover to the bright lights of Times Square. Pages&Prestige helps authors plan a Times Square book-feature campaign, from choosing a placement to preparing creative and coordinating the schedule, so you have a New York moment worth sharing.
Campaigns are arranged with independent screen providers. Placement, schedule, and deliverables are confirmed in a written quote before you commit.
Chapter I · Why Authors Choose It
A milestone you can see, and share.
Finishing a book is a long road. A Times Square feature is one way to mark the moment publicly, in one of the most recognizable settings in the world, and to come away with media you can use in your own author communications.
01
A distinctive milestone
Mark a launch, an anniversary, or a new edition with a moment that feels as significant as the work behind it.
02
A visual moment to share
Use available photos or video on your website, social channels, or in your reader newsletter.
03
Support for a wider plan
Pair the feature with your launch or author-visibility campaign so it reinforces what you are already doing.
04
A memorable introduction
Present your cover and title to a broad public audience in a setting people instantly recognize.
An honest note: billboard exposure does not guarantee book sales, reviews, media coverage, or any specific audience response. We treat a Times Square feature as a milestone and a visibility asset, not a sales promise.
Chapter II · Campaign Options
Three ways to bring your book to Times Square.
Each option is a custom campaign. The inclusions below are what a package may cover; your final inclusions are confirmed in a written quote based on current screen availability.

Pages&Prestige plans and coordinates campaigns; it does not own or operate Times Square screens. Billboard placement is a separate service from any optional PR, social-media, or distribution support, and each is itemized on its own line in your quote.

What a Times Square feature can contribute to your author PR.
A campaign may give you a memorable visual asset for your author communications and help reinforce a book launch or visibility plan you already have in motion.
It tends to work best when it’s part of a story you tell your readers. Consider pairing it with:
- A website update
- A reader newsletter
- A social post
- A launch announcement
We don’t promise impressions, sales, press coverage, or audience response. What we focus on is helping the feature fit your broader plan, and making sure you know exactly which media you should expect to receive.
Chapter V · Before You Begin
What you'll need to get started.
Screen providers review every submission. Having these in place keeps your campaign moving smoothly from proposal to display.
- A published book, or a confirmed publication or launch plan
- Final book title, author name, and approved cover artwork
- Permission to use all images, logos, and promotional assets you supply
- A concise billboard message that is readable at a glance
- A campaign URL or QR code, if requested and approved for the selected creative
- Preferred dates, with enough lead time for vendor review and scheduling
- Your final approval of the billboard creative
- Compliance with the screen provider’s content and technical requirements
