Best Image Size for Event Flyers
There is no single magic number, but there is a sensible range for event flyers. Flyers get forwarded through chats and email, and a lighter file travels further without friction.
Recommended settings for event flyers
| Setting | Starting point |
|---|---|
| Format | JPEG (WebP where accepted) |
| Width | about 1600 px on the long edge |
| Quality | 78 |
| File size | 300 KB or less |
These are practical defaults. If the platform or form you are using publishes its own limits, follow those instead.
Best Image Size
As a starting point, aim for roughly 1600 pixels on the long edge and a file size at or below 300 KB. That combination looks clean on modern screens without wasting bandwidth.
If the place you upload to publishes its own limits, those always win. Treat the numbers here as a practical default when no rule is given, and adjust down if uploads fail or pages feel slow.
