Advertise in BMA Magazine

Who are we?

If you want a good time in or out you’d better pick up a copy of Canberra’s only dedicated entertainment street press. We’ve got what’s on and what’s coming up covered. We’re a full colour, heat-set magazine giving our readers the skinny on the latest CD releases, touring artists and DJs, local acts, movies, theatre, art and general awesomeness.

Where can you get it?

10,000 copies of BMA Magazine are distributed every fortnight to over 400 locations throughout the ACT and surrounding NSW, with 10,000 more downloaded. Main distribution points include; tertiary campuses, music and fashion retailers, video rental outlets, cafes, nightclubs, hotels, pubs, salons, petrol stations and more. Just because you have an ad in a Sydney-based street press, don’t think you’ve got Canberra covered.

Why advertise in BMA Magazine?

Over 35,000 readers pick up BMA Magazine and 10,000 more download it from the web every fortnight. BMA has been in existence for over 20 years, garnering a strong long-time following of people aged 35 and up.

We also tap into the younger demographic (14–35) which other local publications don’t touch, creating a very useful overlapping effect. Our long standing status and on-going commitment all things sassy has led us to be recognised as Canberra’s premiere entertainment tome. Like the best things in life, we’re free, thus accessible to all.
