Sacramento Magazine, sometimes titled Sacramento, was a monthly regional magazine based in Sacramento, California, published and owned by Hour Media.

History

[edit]

The magazine was established in 1975.[1] Mike O'Brien bought the magazine from Micromedia Affiliates, based in Morristown, New Jersey, in 1993.[2] In 2015 Hour Media LLC, based in Michigan, acquired the Sacramento Magazines Corporation.[3] Since then Joe Chiodo has been the publisher and Krista Minard is the editor of the magazine.[1]

The magazine had 25,000 monthly subscribers and 7,500 newsstand copies.[4] It was a member of the City and Regional Magazine Association (CRMA).[5]

The magazine ceased publication in August 2023 when it was announced that the magazine had been acquired by the publishers of rival Sactown Magazine owned by Metropolis Publishing LLC.[6]
