Pubs and clubs

LED signs for pubs and clubs

Tell passing traffic what’s on tonight. Put meals, live sport, music and functions on an LED sign by the road, and the menu and what’s on inside on a screen at the bar. We design and build pub signs at our Welshpool workshop in Perth, our own team installs them, and you change them from your phone.

Which sign suits your venue

Roadside pylon signs

A freestanding sign by the road or in the car park, with a screen on one side or both. With two faces, drivers coming either way see it, and each face can run its own schedule. See outdoor LED signs and pylon signs.

Signs on the building

LED message boards and screens fixed to the facade, a wall or the fascia. On a corner pub, a sign on each street front reaches both roads.

Full colour or single colour

Full colour shows photos of meals, logos and video. Single colour shows red text and numbers, which suits times and short messages, and costs less. A pub front facing west gets the full afternoon sun. Our FA2 outdoor signs reach up to 10,000 nits to stay readable, have no fans, and run without air conditioning up to 55 degrees.

Screens inside

Behind the bar or in the bistro, an indoor LED screen shows tonight's menu, the week's sport and upcoming functions. The FA3 range covers wall screens and video walls. See indoor LED displays.

Size and pixel pitch

A roadside sign read from a passing car suits a larger pitch, such as P10. Screens inside, read from a few metres away, need a smaller pitch. Try your message on the pixel pitch planner, or send us a photo of the spot.

Changing the message

Whoever is on shift can change the sign from a phone. Schedule content by time of day: the lunch menu until 2pm, then tonight’s band, then the courtesy bus times. We install the software (a phone app, a computer program or an online editor, depending on the sign) and show your staff how to use it.

Approvals

Roadside and facade signs often need council approval, and a pub on a main road may need approval from Main Roads WA as well. We handle the application with you at no extra cost, in WA and interstate. Read our council approval guide.

Venues we have worked with

  • Newbay Hotel, Melbourne: we designed and installed full colour LED message boards as part of its facade upgrade. The photos show LED shopfront signs and a full colour screen on the New Bay building. Read the Newbay Hotel story.
  • Windsor Hotel: see the photos on our projects page.

Hire

Hire for a big day

For a big game, a festival or a reopening, hire a sign. Full colour trailer signs show photos, logos and video. We are the only hire company in Perth with double-sided LED signs, so traffic from both directions sees your message. Hire runs from half a day to months. Perth venues can often have one the same day, and we send hire signs anywhere in Australia.

Buying and finance

Buying suits a sign that runs every night. Ledge Finance can fund up to 100% of the sign with fixed monthly payments, and the warranty is 1 to 5 years, depending on the product. We can price hire and buy so you can compare.

Clubs with an oval or courts

If your club has a ground, we also build sponsor screens and LED scoreboards, run from a phone or tablet. See LED signs and scoreboards for sports grounds and electronic and LED scoreboards.

Talk to us about a sign for your venue

Send us a photo of the spot and tell us what the sign needs to say. We will come back with a size, a design and a free quote.
