ATTENTION: The HUB is currently accepting limited advertising requests

Due to staffing constraints, the HUB is currently accepting limited digital display requests. We will do our best to accommodate any received, however if it is short notice we may not be able to support. If you have questions, please contact thehub@uw.edu. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The HUB has a digital display system to be used for advertisements and promotions with priority for HUB events and services followed by campus events and activities. The video wall is located in the HUB’s main atria. Digital displays are located at the North Entrance (first floor), West Column (first floor), and Southwest Entrance (ground floor). 

New in Fall 2024, we also have 5 Trooh Towers added throughout the HUB. We have 1 on the ground floor leading into the Husky Den, 1 on the first floor street, 2 on the second floor, outside HUB 250 and in the Mural Lounge, and 1 in the third floor lounge.
