SVPN Team
SVPN is a monthly dedicated to celebrating lifestyle, property, arts, entertainment, and dining that defines life and culture in the historic resort area of Sun Valley, Idaho. With a tourist season during summer and winter months, a thriving second-home owner community, and substantial year-round residents, SVPN speaks uniquely to each segment of our population. Our monthly issues offer expansive stories with full spreads, stunning photography, and more editorial pages than any other local magazine, resulting in a reading experience that one can get lost in. Over its 4 years of existence, SVPN has grown into THE go-to resource for everything Sun Valley, resulting in the magazine’s share of the market rising to 75%, meaning commercially we are delivering for our advertisers and our readers.
In addition to keeping our finger on the pulse of our readership, SVPN has developed key partnerships with a variety of organizations, most recently winning the coveted Sun Valley Restaurant Association Guide contract. In addition SVPN’s growing brand presence has resulted in exclusive media sponsorships of Sun Valley Film Festival, the SV Road Rally, the Sun Valley Center for the Art’s Wine Auction, and the Wood River Studio Tour.
