03’s high quality, authentic and considered content with a distinct South Island spin and timeless yet contemporary design frequently has readers surprised to learn it’s a free publication.
Each issue showcases what’s new, inspirational, aspirational, happening and worth talking about in the South Island, featuring people, places, businesses, products and events that connect with and celebrate the south.
Previously under the masthead Style, the monthly magazine updated to 03 in December 2022 to better capture its unique identity as a South Island-wide publication and really set it apart from the pack. Our advertising is a carefully balanced mix of display advertising (both supplied and custom designed in-house), promotional feature content (again can be supplied or written in-house) and editorial inclusions, and we love to work with our clients on the most effective and suitable options.
03 tells Southern stories, features local places and people, and champions the South Island lifestyle. Ads feel at home alongside trusted, well-written features.
