2020 MEDIA KIT & DEADLINES
SUNDAY STAR-TIMESQUALITY MAGAZINE
LIFT-OUT
Each week you’ll find Sunday magazine nestled in the pages of the Sunday Star-Times. It has a unique tone of voice that readers love, and it captivates its audience at the perfect time: when they are relaxed and unhurried. Sunday is an iconic publication that’s smart, credible and well-respected.
"Sunday celebrates the good things in life — people, culture, food, fashion, design — but never in a shallow or predictable way. It’s smart, funny, fresh and thought-provoking. A treat for the most relaxing day of the week.”
Emily SimpsonEditor, Sunday

‘Sunday is well-edited, well-written and confident in what its audience wants. Though small in size, it uses photography boldly and every story is pertinent, never to waste the reader’s
time with the mediocre.’
