Sunday Herald Sun

The Sunday Herald Sun is one of Australia's most successful Sunday newspapers. With a readership of 1,481,000 Victorians* every Sunday, the Sunday Herald Sun offers a complete, news, lifestyle and entertainment package that enhances the quality time Victorians have on a Sunday. As vibrant as it is relaxing, the Sunday Herald Sun is a robust marketplace of ideas that both informs and entertains. And with a reputation for breaking the weekends biggest news stories the Sunday Herald Sun sets the agenda for the week ahead.

According to Peter Blunden, former Editor in Chief, now Managing Director - The Herald & Weekly Times, "The Sunday Herald Sun is a thriving marketplace of ideas, an informative and entertaining newspaper that really does deliver a strong and complete package to Victorians every Sunday."

The Sunday Herald Sun prides itself on continually evolving to meet the needs of Victorians and providing the best value for money newspaper.
