A platform to get noticed

There has never been a better time to advertise on TV, whether it's alongside our inspirational cooking shows, travel documentaries, or investigative crime series there is something for everyone, and everywhere.

At ITV, we pride ourselves in a diverse menu of TV channels and programmes, so we’re confident we can find the right programme for your target audience. 

What is a commercial break ad?

A traditional TV advertising campaign can be anything from five seconds to two minutes. Typically there are two types of TV adverts or breaks, so we’ll keep it simple for you:

 

Creative breaks

Designed for special occasions, creative breaks allow advertisers to take over an entire ad break in unique ways to promote a certain issue or event. A recent example included Aldi partnering with brands like Microsoft, Gaviscon, and Nurofen to take over a Coronation Street ad break to mark Deaf Awareness Week where all the ads were signed.

Reactive breaks

Another tactic is reactive breaks, which enable you to change the creative moments before it’s aired to respond to live events. A memorable example included the Territorial Army (TA) launching 21 different live ads, each broadcast from Afghanistan. However, we're open to any brief and our in-house partnership strategy team will craft a campaign based on your specific objective.
