Parkside Media is a diversified media organization involved in print, television and online publishing as well as advertising, event management and public relations, among other client services.

Magazines

It is one of the country’s largest independent magazine publishers. Its offices are in Eden Terrace, Auckland. Owner Greg Vincent established the company in 1990 when he founded New Zealand Classic Car magazine. The company went on to launch two more monthly motoring titles, NZ Performance Car in 1996 and NZV8 in 2005, which have proven durable with a loyal readership.

Parkside launched bi-monthly photography magazine D-Photo in 2004 and acquired another bi-monthtly, The Shed magazine, in 2017. It launched automotive trade magazine Auto Channel in 2018. Auto Channel is distributed free to the automotive industry each month.

Parkside publishes hardcover books and special editions on motoring events and celebrities, as well as calendars and other collateral.
