A birthday billboard in Durrës: the surprise they will never forget

A birthday billboard is the kind of surprise people talk about for years. Picture the moment someone you love walks down Hafiz Podgorica Street and sees their own name, a photo and a message just for them, on a screen the whole city can see. Here is how to organise it without stress.

Why a birthday billboard

• It is different. Messages on a phone are quickly forgotten, a name on the city's screen is not.
• It is easy to share. The moment is simple to film on a phone and post online, so the wishes carry on long after the screen moves to the next spot.
• It is simple. You do not need any editing skills. Send us the photos and the text, and we help with the rest.
• It suits every age. It works just as well for a child's first birthday, an eighteenth or a grandfather turning eighty.

How it works

The CityLed screen is on Hafiz Podgorica Street, one of the busiest streets in Durrës. The birthday package shows your message on the screen for a few minutes, at the time you choose. That lets you match it to the moment the person will be there, for example on the way to dinner or after work. You will find the details and the price on the packages and prices page.

The screen is on 24 hours a day and has a 4K picture, so photos and names look sharp both during the day and in the evening.

What to put on a birthday billboard

The message is read from a distance, so the shorter the better:

• The name, big and clear. It is what makes the message personal.
• One warm sentence. "Happy birthday, Ana! We love you." is enough.
• One or two good photos where the face is clearly visible.
• No long texts. Save the shared memories for the card or the dinner.

Message ideas

A few examples you can adapt:

• For a child: "Happy 6th birthday, Era! You are our superhero."
• For your partner: "Happy birthday, love. Every year with you is better."
• For a parent: "Happy birthday, Mum! Thank you for everything."
• For a friend: "Happy 30th, Arbër! Tonight we celebrate."

Add a photo where the person is smiling and the name in big letters. The moment does the rest.

An idea for the day itself: combine the screen with a small plan. Arrange a walk or a dinner that brings the person past the screen just before the chosen time, and let the surprise do the rest.

Not only for birthdays

The same idea works for other big moments:

• a wedding or relationship anniversary;
• a marriage proposal;
• a graduation or passed exams;
• a welcome home for someone returning from abroad;
• congratulations for a sports team or a colleague.

For these occasions, message us and we will find the best option together, either as a short promotion or on dates you choose yourself.

Frequently asked questions

How far ahead should I book? The earlier the better, especially for weekends and holidays. Message us as soon as you know the date.

What if I do not have good photos? A name and one warm sentence on a colourful background are enough. A simple, clear message often stands out more than a dark photo.

Can I choose the time myself? Yes. The birthday package comes with a custom schedule, so the time it plays is set around your plan.
