If you want people to know about your event you need to advertise it. Event posters are usually a simple solution. From billboards to Banners, from posters to flyers or invitations. The solution is suitable for everything from a formal business or corporate event to a cool concert or rockin’ party. The trick here is to design the poster in such a way that it will not only attract and inform but more importantly get the right people interested. In today’s gallery guide, I’ve collected the best examples I could find that could help you start 2020 off with a bang of inspiration.
Party Event Posters
This collection of party posters varies in design, color, and style, same as the parties themselves. However, they all have a certain thing in common when you see them: you know what you are getting and you want to be there!

Film Festival Event Posters
A film festival poster is a chance to get creative and these examples do just that in so many different ways. The purpose again is to attract film lovers, art lovers, culture vultures. The best examples use classic techniques to relate the festival to the audience. Mon’s combines images of popcorn, camera and Chaplin on an eyecatching orange/blue/white theme. Byron Bay centres on a camera graphic icon and uses icon images to set the physical scene of the festival, again with minimal use of colour. Mostra Internacional relates the film to Art by using abstract Picasso like images and colours.
Other Examples of Event Posters
Here’s Nike’s dynamic New York campaign with contrasting minimal monochrome with loud, garish images and demanding attention. Subtle pastels of the Night Market Event leave a feeling of comfort, while the Arabian hookah uses tones of gorgeous purple and gold to create a rich and exotic surprise. Sip-N-Stitch event poster encompasses the hand-made theme with illustrations and hand-written style fonts. Different design for different occasion.
Final Words
In conclusion, event posters are more than adverts. They reflect your image, tone, and concept. Time and effort spent creating something effective and genuinely thoughtful are not time wasted. It reflects the time, effort, and thought put into the event itself. It’s often your first point of contact with your potential audience, so make it count.
