Event Packages
Promote Your Event from £49 We’d love to oblige every request for free inclusion of event posters; from table top sales to music festivals but Discover relies on paid advertising so we have to charge. However, as we are keen to include events (it’s good for readership thus good for our advertisers) we offer favourably priced packages for dated events only.
Quarter Page Poster Package ONLY £49 + vat • Guaranteed inclusion of your Quarter Page poster in three editions of your choice in the appropriate
Celebrating 20 Years Of Community Events Bishop’s Waltham Festival has been presenting exciting and creative performances in Bishop’s Waltham for 20 years. Managed and run entirely by volunteers from the community. Past festivals have included music performances by household names such as The Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, George Melly, Show of Hands, The Albion Band, Kenny Ball, Humphrey Littleton and many many more. Outdoor classic productions have always proved a
popular feature, with audiences of over 400 on occasions enjoying a picnic and excellent professional plays by the best national touring companies. Festivals have also featured plays for children, workshops, story telling, standup comedy, poetry, restaurant concerts, and vibrant music events. The 20th year celebration of Bishop’s Waltham Festival sees it move with the modern times, back in the palace grounds and St Peters church with a most diverse range of events ever. Held over the weekend of 14th - 17th July 2016 it promises to be an exciting and fun-packed weekend of activities for all to enjoy. See www.bwfestival.co.uk for tickets and further information

One Deadline / 2 Issues
Our Alternating Deadlines Explained When we design a magazine we prepare two issues together. From the files we supply, the printer produces two months in one print run by interrupting the process to change the plates of the outer pages. The outer pages (front cover, editor letter, What’s On and some advertisers) are relevant to the month while the centre pages are common for both months. This results in a quantity of month 1 delivered to Circulation A and a quantity for month 2 to Circulation B. When the copies come back from the printers, the month 1 stock is delivered immediately while the month 2 copies are held back and delivered approximately three weeks later. Therefore, we deliver monthly. This is commonly known in the publishing industry as “split distribution”.
How does this affect you? • If you are in the common pages your advert is the same for two months. • To reach Discover’s full circulation in any edition you need to book two consecutive months. • As we deliver monthly, we quote and invoice monthly
