The magCulture Boxset

The magCulture Boxset is dead! Long live the Boxset!

The Boxset was our popular quarterly subscription service. After five years of successful Boxsetting, we’ve wrapped the service into the new magCulture Club. The Club has three membership levels, and level one includes the same magazine delivery as the Boxset.

Level one members receive a box of five magazines every three months, delivered to their home or business anywhere in the world, to share with customers and staff or simply to enjoy themselves. Each box contains a combination of new issues carefully chosen to reflect the exciting world of independent magazines, plus the occasional extra surprise.

 

Who is the magCulture Club Boxset for?
Everyone! include businesses and individuals. They range from creative studios looking for inspiration, via cafés after an extra for their customers, to people keen to be surprised by a regular splash of creativity.

We’re often asked to help people source collections of magazines on a one-to-one basis – the magCulture Boxset is a streamlined extension of this service.

If you’d like a different, more bespoke delivery, please email us: shop@magculture.com

 


 *Please note we ship Boxsets at the start of each quarter. New subscriptions ordered up to the 15th of that month will receive the Boxset; later new subscribers will start from the next quarter (January, April, July, October).
