Apply for newspaper headline posters

Apply for newspaper headline posters

We control outdoor advertising and signage in Cape Town. Newspaper titles may register for permission to display daily headline posters on an approved number of light poles. However, the City will discourage the abuse of these privileges by a third party as well as the use of offensive language.

How to apply

Step 1: Download and complete the Newspaper Headline Posters Application Form from the document downloads section and submit it at any of our district offices (see below).

You will need to provide with your application:

  • a map of all points of display; and
