Can I run video ads on digital billboards in Washington D.C.?

Published

Yes, but only within specific zones. D.C's Designated Entertainment Areas, including Gallery Place/Chinatown, the Capital One Arena precinct, The Wharf and Nationals Park, permit full-motion digital displays and animated commercial signage. Outside these zones, federal highway rules and the District's own sign code rule out video on most roadside formats, so transit, street furniture, and venue screens carry the bulk of DC's digital motion inventory.
