· 01 · The brief

An arena date, and the streets around it two weeks ahead.

For Teddy Swims at Phoenix's Mortgage Matchup Center, we wheatpasted 100 posters and put up 200 pole snipes across downtown Phoenix, live about two weeks before the show, so the date was on the streets around the arena well ahead of time.

Goldenvoice and AEG Presents booked Teddy Swims into Mortgage Matchup Center for Monday, November 16, 2026.

The arena lists the date on its own events page. Goldenvoice wanted awareness for the show built in the weeks leading up to it, with the date in front of people on foot well before show night.

The buy was two formats: 100 wheatpaste posters at 24 by 36 and 200 pole snipes, 300 placements in all. Everything went live on Saturday, October 31, 2026, 16 days before the show.

· 02 · What we ran

One artwork, at two reading distances.

The poster is the tour art. The TEDDY SWIMS wordmark runs upside down across the top over "performing with Freak Freely", then THE UGLY TOUR, a black and white figure with a hand raised to the face, and the special guests Natasha Bedingfield and Marclo. The foot of the sheet carries the details: November 16, Mortgage Matchup Center, and tickets at teddyswims.com.

The 100 wheatpaste posters went up at 24 by 36 in two-row blocks, eight to twelve sheets a wall in the frames published here. The 200 snipes carry the same art on poles, one to three stacked.

· 03 · Where we ran it

Downtown Phoenix, on the walls and poles around the arena.

The brief put the run across downtown Phoenix around Mortgage Matchup Center, and the album follows both formats through the same Saturday morning.

The signage in the published frames places some of it. One stack of three snipes sits on a signal pole under the Roosevelt street sign. Another pole stands on the Jefferson St light rail platform, and a pair faces the Valley Metro tracks with a purple light rail train behind it.

The walls are the textured surfaces wheatpaste grabs: painted brick under an old mural, a storefront under a corrugated metal canopy, a boarded window on white painted brick. One block of ten wraps the curved corner under the AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE & REPAIR sign, the same wall that carried our Johnny Blue Skies run in September. A Johnny Blue Skies poster from that run is still up beside the new block.

We have no published coordinates for this run. The album copies carry no GPS, so this page names the area the brief set and the signage legible in the frames, and nothing finer.

· 04 · How it played

The point was lead time.

Going live on October 31 put the date on the street for the 16 days before the show, the run-up Goldenvoice wanted covered. Posters typically hold two to six weeks on a wall, one to three on the busiest corridors.

· 05 · Proof

The album holds 145 frames.

They were shot on the morning of Saturday, October 31, 2026, the day the run went live, between 7:50 and 11:43 local time. Seven are published here: four poster walls, opening on the curved corner block, and three snipe poles, starting under the Roosevelt street sign.

· 06 · Notes

Notes.

Johnny Blue Skies paired the same two formats ahead of a Desert Diamond Arena date in September, and the Red Clay Strays ran 200 posters on their own. Our Phoenix coverage page lists the rest of what we run in the city.

Published floors start at $3,500 for wheatpaste posters and $3,000 for snipes and stickers, printing and installation included, with the full list on the pricing page.

· 07 · Common questions

Common questions.

How many posters and snipes ran for Teddy Swims in Phoenix?

100 wheatpaste posters at 24 by 36 and 200 pole snipes, 300 placements in all, across downtown Phoenix around Mortgage Matchup Center.

When did the campaign go live?

Saturday, October 31, 2026, 16 days before the Monday, November 16 show, about two weeks out.

Why run posters and snipes together?

They work at different distances. A two-row block of 24 by 36 posters reads from across the street, and a snipe on a signal pole is a close read for someone waiting to cross. Both carry the date, the venue and where to buy tickets.

Who was the client?

Goldenvoice and AEG Presents, for the Teddy Swims show at Mortgage Matchup Center.
