What we do in Newport Beach

Street-level marketing, printed and installed by us.

Guerrilla marketing puts your brand on Newport Beach streets where people actually walk — wheatpaste posters, hand-painted murals, sidewalk stencils, pole snipes, and interior takeovers, printed and installed by one crew. No media-owner middleman, no billboard rates: every placement is permitted, hand-applied, and photographed the day it goes up.

  1. 01
    Brief & route

    You send the brand, dates, and audience. We map the Newport Beach corridors where that buyer actually walks and price off the published floor.

  2. 02
    Scout & secure

    Crews scout walls on foot, then lock every surface in writing: owner agreement, BID-cleared scaffold, or permitted hoarding. The paper trail ships with the photos.

  3. 03
    Print & install

    We print in-house and hand-install from dawn, moving neighborhood to neighborhood. Scout-and-install routes the brief on a per-market schedule.

  4. 04
    Document

    Every placement shot wide, mid, and detail, GPS-stamped on install day. The wrap deck lands within five business days with the full proof set.

Why street media works in Newport Beach.

Newport Beach concentrates affluent Orange County into a small footprint with unusually tight buyer-and-audience overlap. Median household income runs above $190K and household net worth sits in the multi-million-dollar tier, so on Corona del Mar Village and the Fashion Island perimeter the audience is the buyer. Brands often see direct attributable lift inside the metro, and premium fashion reads here at the same intensity it reads in West Hollywood.

Three reasons brands book us here

  • 1
    Balboa Peninsula, the summer body count

    Balboa Peninsula runs three miles from the pier to the wedge, with the boardwalk pulling roughly five to seven million annual visitors and a tight retail corridor along Main Street and Newport Boulevard. Summer weekends move the body count well past resident density. Restaurants, surf retail, and the Balboa Theater hold roughly twenty paste-friendly surfaces inside a fifteen-minute walk. Best fit for DTC apparel, wellness, beverage, and beach-lifestyle launches that need a coastal anchor.

    Corona del Mar, the affluent resident read

    Corona del Mar Village along Coast Highway concentrates the Newport Beach affluent resident base into ten walkable blocks. Median household income above $190K, household net worth in the multi-million-dollar tier, retail mix weighted toward independent boutique, premium home goods, and resident-favorite dining. The audience is the buyer. We've routed luxury fashion, premium beauty, and wellness briefs through this corridor specifically because the read is direct.

    Fashion Island and the South Coast Plaza orbit

    Fashion Island is the open-air premium retail center for affluent Orange County, anchored by Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale's, the boutique cluster, and the Pelican Hill Resort orbit. The center sits inside a private property covenant, so direct paste inside the mall is closed; the perimeter blocks, Newport Center Drive, and the office-tower frontage along San Joaquin Hills Road carry the workable surfaces. Premium fashion, jewelry, beauty, and luxury auto brands read here at the same intensity they read in West Hollywood.

Surfaces, permits & timing

Surfaces

6 neighborhoods on the active route: wheatpaste walls, scaffold corners, and mural-ready sites scouted per brief. Brick, concrete, hoarding, and storefront.

Permit path

Wheatpaste is workable in Newport Beach only on private walls whose owners have put consent in writing, and we hold that signed permission before a crew touches a surface. The city keeps its signage and aesthetic codes tighter than most of Orange County, and the Coastal Zone overlay, reviewed alongside the California Coastal Commission, layers extra scrutiny onto everything west of Pacific Coast Highway, so we pre-clear those Balboa Peninsula and Coast Highway walls against both the city planning desk and the CCC. Nothing in the public right-of-way is fair game; utility poles, transit, OCTA bus shelters, and the beach-adjacent boardwalk furniture all stay untouched. Our compliance file for the market tracks Newport Beach Municipal Code Title 20 sign regulations and the Fashion Island private-mall covenant, which is why our work there lives on the Newport Center Drive perimeter and the San Joaquin Hills Road office frontage rather than inside the center. Every install runs on permissioned private property, documented the way it has been.

When to run

Summer, Memorial Day through Labor Day, is the operational peak for Balboa Peninsula, with boardwalk traffic peaking across June, July, and August. Corona del Mar Village and Fashion Island hold steady year-round on the affluent resident base. Pre-holiday windows, October through early December, read strongly for luxury, fashion, and gift-category briefs. The Newport Beach Film Festival in October layers arts-and-entertainment reach on top of the resident base. Coastal Zone properties west of Pacific Coast Highway add a five-to-seven-business-day CCC-coordinated pre-clear to the front of the schedule.

Q · 01

Is wheatpasting legal in Newport Beach?

Yes, on private walls where the owner has signed off, and we hold that written consent before a single sheet goes up. Newport Beach Municipal Code Title 20 governs signage citywide, while the Coastal Zone overlay coordinated with the California Coastal Commission tightens review on anything west of Pacific Coast Highway, so Balboa Peninsula and Coast Highway walls get pre-cleared against both. We stay off every piece of public infrastructure here, from utility poles and OCTA bus shelters to the beach-adjacent boardwalk furniture and the right-of-way. Inside Fashion Island the private-mall covenant closes the interior, so our surfaces there are the Newport Center Drive perimeter and the San Joaquin Hills Road office frontage.

Q · 02

How much does a Newport Beach wheatpaste campaign cost?

Newport Beach campaigns open at $3,500 with both printing and installation folded into that number. Layering Balboa Peninsula, Corona del Mar Village, and the Fashion Island perimeter into one run moves the price up from that floor, and Coastal Zone walls west of Pacific Coast Highway add roughly ten to fifteen percent for the extra city-and-CCC pre-clear paperwork. Summer weekends, when the boardwalk body count runs past resident density, carry tighter property-coordination costs; the rest of the calendar prices at standard. What you pay tracks print volume, crew days, corridor count, and size, never the brand on the poster, and the firm quote lands within 24 to 48 hours.

Q · 03

What kinds of brands fit best on Newport Beach walls?

Balboa Peninsula's boardwalk and surf-shop brick suit DTC apparel, beverage, wellness, and beach-lifestyle launches that want a coastal anchor. Corona del Mar Village and the Fashion Island perimeter, where median household income clears $190K and the audience is the buyer, are built for luxury fashion, premium beauty, jewelry, and wellness. Premium auto and home-goods brands route through Newport Heights and the office-tower frontage on San Joaquin Hills Road. The affluent base sits in such a tight footprint that buyer and audience overlap almost completely, and brands often see direct attributable lift inside the metro.

Q · 04

When is the best window to run a Newport Beach campaign?

For Balboa Peninsula coverage, aim at summer, Memorial Day through Labor Day, with boardwalk foot traffic cresting across June, July, and August. Corona del Mar Village and the Fashion Island perimeter hold steady all year on their affluent resident base, so they aren't season-locked. October through early December is the strongest pre-holiday stretch for luxury, fashion, and gift-category briefs, and the Newport Beach Film Festival in October stacks an arts-and-entertainment crowd onto the resident read. We build the calendar backward from the coordination windows each corridor's property owners run on.

Q · 05

How does the Coastal Zone overlay affect campaign timing?

On anything west of Pacific Coast Highway it inserts a pre-clear step: the California Coastal Commission reviews Coastal Zone signage alongside the city, so those walls pass through both the property owner and the city's planning desk before install. Budget five to seven business days at the front of the schedule for that clearance. We fold the window in by default on any Balboa Peninsula or Coast Highway placement, while the rest of the city's corridors keep to standard timing.
