The exciting new digital initiative, HELLO Newy, is aimed directly towards the tourist market and is dedicated to promoting everything we love about our city to the growing influx of visitors to our region.

​

Those of us who live here know what a special place it is, with pristine beaches right in the city, diverse culinary experiences, and a vibrant arts and culture scene, all within a stone’s throw from the Hunter Valley with its world-class wines and fine dining establishments. Add to that the stunning landscapes of Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens, the quaint country towns of Maitland and Morpeth and it’s no wonder we’ve tried to keep the lid on it!

​

HELLO Newy is the first and only magazine dedicated to the tourism market, and it couldn’t be more timely. With the new international terminal at Newcastle Airport due for completion in 2025 and three times more cruise ships due to arrive this season, our visitor economy is beginning to boom.

​

Visitors will be given numerous opportunities to access the HELLO Newy platforms and specifically the digital magazine with QR codes strategically placed at the airport, in hotel rooms, visitor information centres, the cruise terminal, public transport access points and more. If there’s a visitor – HELLO Newy will be there to welcome them!

​

HELLO Newy connects tourists to local businesses and aims to enhance their visit to our city and grow our local economy. It will be a vibrant and informative brand that promotes events, tourist attractions, hospitality venues, retailers, services, and activities for families, couples, and groups visiting for one week to one month. And we’d love to give you the opportunity to be part of this historic first issue.
