Answer 1

I have tried and its working for me.

<referenceContainer name="page.wrapper">
        <container name="page.wrapper.second" as="page_wrapper_second" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="my-custom-div" before="main.content">
               <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="your_banner_block">
                     <arguments>
                          <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">your_banner_block</argument>
                     </arguments>
               </block>
        </container>
</referenceContainer>

You have to place your banner block instead of "your_banner_block" block.
