A5 is 148 × 210 mm, half an A4 sheet. It is big enough for a strong headline, a photo, a few lines of detail and contact information, yet small enough to hand out comfortably at a market, a church gathering, a school gate or a shopping centre entrance. Many businesses use A5 for event announcements, takeaway menus, open-day invitations and seasonal specials.
Double-sided A5 is a good way to keep the front simple and eye-catching while putting the practical details, such as a map, a timetable or a menu, on the back. Choose a mid-weight gloss for colourful photographic designs or a matt stock for a calmer, easy-to-read finish.
FAQs
Should I choose A5 or A6 for an event flyer?
If you need to show a date, venue, programme and contact details, A5 gives you space without crowding. A6 works when the message is short, such as a single date and a QR code.
Can I use an A5 flyer as a takeaway menu?
Yes. Double-sided A5 on a matt card stock is a common choice. Lamination helps if the menu will be handled often or kept near a kitchen.
Can I get A5 flyers on the same day?
Same-day production may be possible for small quantities, subject to product eligibility, stock, capacity, quantity, artwork readiness and finishing, with full payment, usable artwork and approvals before the configured cutoff. Production completion and delivery arrival are separate commitments.
