GOOD WEEKEND //
Introduction
Good Weekend is the most prestigious, widely-read newspaper inserted magazine in the country, with the largest readership and longest history – publishing every Saturday in The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age for 40 years.
The magazine is known for penning the definitive feature stories about the people and issues that Australians are talking about, the pieces that, because they have been exhaustively researched and beautifully written, stand the test of time.
With 'Good' and 'Weekend' in its title, it’s also about providing inspiration for our readers down time. Thus, sections on what to cook at home and where to eat out; what to watch, read and listen to; style for the person and for the home; and inspirational places to visit, both here and overseas.
A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR //
Melissa Stevens, Editor
"Good Weekend's mix of prestige storytelling and premium lifestyle content informs and entertains in equal measure. Each week we offer our loyal audience definitive pieces about people or issues that Australians are talking about, to our expert takes on fashion, food or popular culture and, of course, our much-loved quiz."
Melissa has expertise in both news and lifestyle journalism and has edited a number of print and digital publications in Australia and Asia. She comes to Good Weekend after most recently having edited The Sun-Herald in Sydney and the Life verticals of The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, Brisbane Times and WA Today.
