Exclusive AudienceOne of the key strengths of The West Weekend Magazine will be its ability to
deliver a top-end, exclusive audience which is not reached by other media and
national lifestyle publications.

Review Magazine, Wish Magazine or the Weekend Australian Magazine*.
Furthermore, The West Weekend Magazine will reach an exclusive audience of
351,000 who do not read the Sunday Times and 555,000 who do not read STM.

reach the largest possible audience with a potential readership 951,000 each
weekend.
