We print vinyl banners in 200+ sizes, from 2 ft high up to 10 ft high and 30 ft long. Sizes are listed height × width, so a 3x6 banner is 3 ft high and 6 ft wide. Every size page shows current prices, a to-scale diagram, and how far away the text can be read.

How to Choose the Right Banner Size
- Measure the space. Measure where the banner will hang, and leave room for ties, hooks, or a frame.
- Think about viewing distance. As a rule of thumb, 1 inch of letter height reads from about 10 ft away. Taller banners fit bigger letters (see the table below).
- Fit the message. A short headline works on almost any size. More lines of text need a taller banner so each line stays readable.
- Choose the shape. Wide banners suit fences, storefronts, and stage fronts. Vertical banners suit entrances, columns, and poles.
- Indoors or outdoors. Indoors, smaller banners are usually enough. Outdoors, go bigger so people can read it from the street or parking lot.
How Far Away Can a Banner Be Read?
Headline letters can be about a quarter of the banner’s height:
| Banner height | Headline letters | Readable from |
|---|---|---|
| 2 ft (24 in) | About 6 in | About 60 ft |
| 3 ft (36 in) | About 9 in | About 90 ft |
| 4 ft (48 in) | About 12 in | About 120 ft |
| 5 ft (60 in) | About 15 in | About 150 ft |
| 6 ft (72 in) | About 18 in | About 180 ft |
| 8 ft (96 in) | About 24 in | About 240 ft |
| 10 ft (120 in) | About 30 in | About 300 ft |

Banner Size FAQ
What are the standard banner sizes?
There’s no official standard, but the sizes our customers order most are 2x4 (24 × 48 in), 3x6 (36 × 72 in), and 4x8 (48 × 96 in). Our most popular banner sizes analysis also ranks 3x5, 2x6, and 3x8 near the top.
What size banner should I get?
Start with the space and the viewing distance. For tables and indoor walls, a 2x4 or 2x6 works well. For storefronts and fences, a 3x6 is the most popular choice. For signs that need to be read from the street, go with a 4x8 or larger.
How do I measure for a banner?
Measure the height and width of the space where it will hang, then subtract a few inches on each side for ties or hooks. Then check the viewing distance: decide how far away people will be, and use the table above to pick a height with large enough letters.
What size banner fits a trade show booth?
A standard 10-ft inline booth has a back wall about 8 ft high, so an 8x10 banner fits the back wall and a 3x10 works as a header. Check your show’s exhibitor manual for height limits.
What size banner is best for a birthday party?
A 3x6 is the most popular choice for garages, fences, and backyards. For indoor walls and cake tables, a 2x4 or 2x6 works well. See more ideas on our birthday banners page.
What size banner is best for a church or school?
For a front lawn, fence, or entrance, a 3x6 is the most common choice. For roadside visibility, go with a 4x8, and for gym walls or long building fronts, a 3x10. See our church banners and school banners pages for more ideas.
