Quick answer: open the free flyer template in Altto Layout, replace the event name, date, details and time, then save it as a print-ready A4 PDF. It runs in your browser, needs no sign-up and nothing is uploaded.

Publisher flyers were the go-to for fairs, jumble sales, club nights and open days. This is an original A4 portrait event flyer: a coloured header with the date and event name, a block of details with bullet points, and a box at the bottom for the time and place. It is built from ordinary text and shapes, so you can change all of it.

How to make your flyer

  1. Click Open the flyer template. The editor opens with the sample flyer on the page.
  2. Double-click the headline, date and details and type your own. Delete the bullet points you don’t need or add more.
  3. Change the colours and fonts from the side panel to suit your event, and add a logo or photo as a picture.
  4. Choose PDF to print on A4, or PNG/JPG to post on social media or send in a message.

Tips for a flyer people read

  • Put the what, when and where where they can be found in a second: the date and event name at the top, the time and place in the box at the bottom.
  • Keep the details short. A few lines and a few bullets beat a paragraph.
  • Print at 100% (“actual size”) on A4. Home printers can’t print to the paper edge, so the design keeps its text away from the margins.
  • Want A5 handouts? Ask a print shop to scale the A4 PDF down, or print two to a sheet and cut.

Other designs in the same editor: certificate, 2027 calendar, newsletter, menu, invitation and business card. It can also open old .pub files.
