Banner Sizes Ireland: PVC Outdoor & Roll-Up Banner Size Guide

Ordering the wrong banner size is one of the most common mistakes Irish businesses make. A banner that is too small disappears on a shop front; one that is too large costs more than necessary and is harder to hang. This guide covers every standard outdoor PVC banner size and roll-up banner dimension we print for customers across Ireland.
Browse our banners Ireland hub, order PVC banners or roll-up banners, or read the full banner FAQ for pricing, materials, and artwork tips.
Standard outdoor PVC banner sizes
These are the most common PVC banner sizes for Irish shop fronts, events, sports clubs, and outdoor advertising. All sizes include hemmed edges and reinforced eyelets as standard.
| Size | Best for | From |
|---|---|---|
| 2ft × 4ft (60 × 120 cm) | Shop window, small sale sign, directional signage | €25 |
| 3ft × 6ft (90 × 180 cm) | Most popular outdoor size — shop fronts, events, sports | €45 |
| 4ft × 8ft (120 × 240 cm) | Large shop-front, building wrap, festival backdrops | €70 |
| 5ft × 10ft (150 × 300 cm) | Extra-large outdoor advertising, scaffolding | €120 |
| Custom up to 5m wide | Bespoke widths and lengths — quote on request | Quote |
The 3ft × 6ft banner is the sweet spot for most Irish outdoor use — large enough to read from across a car park or street, but affordable for single-event orders. For windy locations (fences, scaffolding, GAA grounds), ask about mesh PVC banners which let wind pass through without tearing.
Roll-up banner sizes
Roll-up (pull-up) banners are measured by width × height. The graphic retracts into a base for easy transport — ideal for trade shows, reception areas, and corporate events.
| Size | Best for | From |
|---|---|---|
| 850mm × 2000mm | Compact roll-up — reception desks, small exhibitions | €35 |
| 1000mm × 2000mm | Standard trade show width — most popular | €45 |
| 1200mm × 2000mm | Wide roll-up — corporate events, retail displays | €55 |
| Custom up to 1500 × 3000mm | Bespoke exhibition displays — quote on request | Quote |
How to choose the right banner size
- Shop sale or window sign: 2ft × 4ft — readable from the pavement
- Shop front or event entrance: 3ft × 6ft — the most versatile outdoor size
- Large building or festival: 4ft × 8ft or 5ft × 10ft
- Trade show or exhibition: 1000mm roll-up — standard booth width
- Reception desk or clinic: 850mm roll-up — compact and portable
- GAA club or sports sponsor board: 3ft × 6ft PVC or 4ft × 8ft mesh for windy pitches
Metric vs imperial — what Irish printers use
Irish banner printers typically quote in feet (2×4, 3×6, 4×8) for outdoor PVC banners, and millimetres (850mm, 1000mm, 1200mm) for roll-up banners. If you have a space measured in metres, divide by 0.3048 to convert to feet — or send us the dimensions and we will recommend the closest standard size.
