Description
Metropol was founded in 1998 in a city heavy with competitive media, there was no print media providing in-depth coverage of the city’s pulse when it came to our unique lifestyle here and the visionary people that tirelessly contribute to it. His aim was to celebrate Christchurch and Cantabrians from the innovative hospitality industry to the creative designers in all fields, the savvy business owners and the movers and shakers who have helped make Christchurch standout as a great, little city on the world stage.
Today Metropol, with a circulation of 52,000, is a national multi-award winning magazine, published fortnightly. Metropol's readers continue to discover the latest news about what’s happening locally in the lifestyle scene. From the latest news on bars, businesses and boutiques opening, or reopening following earthquake repairs, to profiles on the who’s who around town, there are topics of interest for a wide audience.
Readers rely on Metropol for in-depth news on upmarket shopping, fashion trends from New Zealand and international designers, the latest on health and beauty trends, bridal news covering all aspects of weddings, top spots for foodies, local artisans, fine wines, architectural news, stylish home décor advice and new home-ware on offer, as well as road tests and the latest launches of the most sought after vehicles.
In essence Metropol is quintessential Christchurch.
Metropol has a fully downloadable e-mag with live links for direct online contacts which offer further information about advertisers or specific articles. This makes both Metropol available to everyone, anywhere, who wish to discover more about our city.
