Van Wagner Aerial Media, LLC

Van Wagner Aerial Media, LLC is described by the company as the largest aerial advertising business in the United States and part of the broader Van Wagner marketing and entertainment group. Established in 2004 through the acquisition of Aerial Sign Company, Inc. (a banner-towing business based in Hollywood, Florida) and operating from Pembroke Pines, Florida, it delivers out-of-home advertising in the sky.

Formats include large full-color aerial billboards (towed banners), skytyping (computer-generated digital sky messages spanning over half a mile), traditional skywriting, and helicopter banners. The company positions itself as the only national aerial media operator, with a strategically positioned fleet capable of reaching nearly every major beach and metropolitan area, and it says it can provide orchestrated key-market aerial coverage across the U.S. and Puerto Rico.

Van Wagner Aerial employs its own pilots and owns and operates a nationwide fleet of fully insured, GPS-equipped aircraft, towing what it calls the largest banners in the business. Target environments include beaches, major sporting events (NFL, MLB, NCAA football, NASCAR, marathons), concerts, state fairs and other large outdoor gatherings, making it a genuine, currently operating OOH media owner in the aerial niche.
