Scenestr

MEDIA KIT – SCENESTR MAGAZINE


scenestr is the runaway market leader in entertainment print media in Australia. It's the largest – and only national – street press group in the country. We publish:

  • Separate state editions in NSW, Vic and Qld every four weeks
  • Separate state editions quarterly in SA and WA

allowing us to present bespoke local content as well as relevant national articles for each audience.

scenestr is free to pick-up which allows for widespread coverage.

The quarto-size (a couple of centimetres smaller than A4), gloss format is an absolute winner in terms of presence for shelf space and portability. Not too large, not too small - just right! Perfect to achieve more outlets and great pick-up rates.

Digital versions of the print mags are recreated and are accessible from our website main menu

We saturate inner-city hot spots and suburbs. Find us in all JB Hi Fis, universities, arts hubs, cafes, information booths, hotels, fast food outlets, recording studios, independent record stores, fashion, instrument and tech retailers, health clinics, laundromats and shopping centres all around Australia.

We also reach select regional areas. In NSW, for example, this includes Blue Mountains and Wollongong. Our SE Qld edition reaches Ipswich, both coasts and Byron Bay.

We print 50,000 copies across the five states. We consistently enjoy 99+ % pick-up rates, conservatively estimating 1.5 readers per copy (90,000 readers).
