    MEDIA KIT 2017 Discover PHOENIX like never before is THE leading city magazine in the state of Arizona, with a total monthly average gross distribution of 88,000+ and over 350,000 total monthly readers. A top purveyor of travel, dining, the arts, entertainment and healthcare journalism, PHOENIX consistently ranks highest among national monthly titles in statewide newsstand sales and continues to be the Valley’s go-to-source for award-winning features and news coverage. LETTER FROM THE EDITOR milestone anniversary is more than a celebration – it’s an opportunity for reflection. Taking stock. Mindful change. As PHOENIX finishes cele- brating its 50th year of marriage to Athe Valley of the Sun, change and modernization are top of mind – a fact reflected in our 2017 edi- torial calendar. Consider the update we’re making to one of our biggest, most widely read perennial issues, Summer Getaways. Our advertisers and promotional partners love the content, but also feel the issue’s publication month, June, falls a bit too late in the season for readers planning their summer vacations. Our solution in 2017: moving Summer Getaways to May, with a fresh, exciting emphasis on coastal adventures. Many of our updates for 2017 were predicated on a comprehensive reader-prefer- ence survey completed this past summer. Our read- ers also told us they wanted more coverage of local business, the arts and Valley growth. Presto: a new monthly page devoted to Valley entrepreneurship, an expanded two-page arts section and feature sto- ries about freeway expansion and new home builds. Our readers also loved 101 Things We Love About Phoenix.
