GETTING THE WORD OUT
LUDWIG VAN offers a direct and targeted connection to classical music and opera audiences without the high costs of traditional print media. Our rates span from surprisingly inexpensive, to downright cheap and are in lock step with the financial realities of running independent arts organizations, venues, and small businesses. Our totally clickable ads extend across multiple pages and put your brand in front of thousands of classical music lovers each day. We pride ourselves on keeping readers up-do-date with relevant news, community events, reviews, and commentary on the topics readers are most interested in. Our prices are catered to promote small, independent, local businesses, musicians, and organizations in Ontario.
Due to the curated nature of Ludwig Van, advertising spaces are limited – for prices and all advertising inquiries, please email advertising@ludwig-van.com and we will get back to you with the available spots. We ask advertisers for a minimum commitment of one month (we can be flexible in special circumstances) and we are happy to reserve spots for longer periods.
READER STATS:
Ludwig Van Toronto reaches over half-million readers over the course of a year, and continues to grow. Our website delivers another 72,000 visitors each month, with thousands reading us on our mobile site and iPad edition. More than 40,000 of these monthly visits — 60% — are from local readers.
WHO’S WHO MEMBERSHIP:
Ludwig Van offers a special curated membership intended to give local arts companies and venues an economical way to let our readers know all the extraordinary things you’ve been up to. Each WHO’S WHO member receives a public profile that included press releases, season, special events, and promotional activities. These are published on our front page, and posted to our many Facebook and Twitter followers. All you need to do is send us the text and some photos, and we will take care of the rest. Prices vary and are dependent upon how active you would like to be as a member.

SPONSORED ADVERTISING:
For those looking for an extra special way to get the word out, we also offer a select few weekly advertorials (clearly marked). These are featured on our landing page carousel, which sits atop our page highlighting our top posts. This option is best suited for newsworthy events, large season announcements, and must fit with Ludwig Van’s mission. For rates, contact michael@ludwig-van.com
