Wildstone unveils the largest roadside digital billboard in Spain
World’s largest owner of OOH assets builds 20m digital screen in Madrid as part of Spanish expansion
Madrid: Leading outdoor media infrastructure owner Wildstone has unveiled an impressive 20x6m digital billboard on the Burgos highway in the Alcobendas district of Madrid.
The billboard is strategically located beside the A-1 route in the busy Alcobendas municipality, one of the main arterial roads for entering and leaving Madrid. An average of 189,223 vehicles pass the site each day.
Media operator Impact OOH will manage the screen. Wildstone led the end-to-end development of the billboard, transforming it from a 12x5m, single-sided screen to a 20x6m, double-sided screen. (“20x6m” is approximately 65.62 feet by 19.69 feet) Of course in the US we reference size of billboards with vertical listed first and width or length second. For example in this particular instance the size is roughly 20×65. Regardless of meters or feet, this makes it one of Europe’s largest digital billboards and Spain’s biggest large-format roadside billboard.
Moving forward, Wildstone plans to acquire and upgrade large-format screens like this across Spain and beyond. To sustain the screen’s huge size, the supporting mast was designed in a triangular, lattice-like structure using similar techniques to those employed in the construction of the Eiffel Tower.
Having entered the Spanish market in 2022, Wildstone currently owns over 1,700 outdoor advertising panels across Spain.
Carlos Pestaña, Managing Director, Wildstone Spain, said: “At Wildstone, we’re going beyond traditional out-of-home to create iconic structures. This extraordinary billboard combines cutting-edge technology and robust design to offer a high-impact visual advertising platform with a low environmental impact. The project reinforces our commitment to technological innovation in outdoor advertising, offering impactful, high-value solutions for both advertisers and property owners.”
Pedro Várez, CEO at Impact OOH, said: “By collaborating with Wildstone on innovative projects like this one, we significantly strengthen the value of our digital network. The site’s cutting-edge LED technology enhances the quality of each advert and allows us to display dynamic, adaptable messages in real time, making it far more effective than traditional media. We look forward to developing our relationship with Wildstone, as we continue to innovate and adapt to our clients’ changing needs.”
