THE HUBBUB
The Transistor is Duluth’s best, free entertainment magazine with 1,000 copies distributed every Monday to over 50 high-traffic distribution points throughout Duluth, MN and Superior, WI. Edgy, colorful and irreverent, the Transistor is written for residents and visitors who are looking for art and entertainment in the Twin Ports. Theatre, dance, music, food and nightlife share the spotlight with weekly local humor columns and original comics. Transistor's comprehensive local arts & entertainment calendar features an array of traditional and outsider events, appealing to a wide audience. Limited calendar space, combined with a crack team of event researchers, and active hunting for those hidden entertainment gems makes this the go-to calendar for Duluth/Superior—not something to be taken lightly among an entertainment-oriented audience that demands credible and relevant information that they will put to use all week long. Every week features top-notch local writers who cover a variety of timely, alternative topics, with a distinctive, bitingly funny voice: Top Picks—the Transistor's best bets on entertainment and local culture for the week—Gettin' Ripped by Slim Goodbuzz, All Bets Off by Mark Lindquist, Curmudgeon's Corner by Russ Stewart, Make\Out by Ann Klefstad, The Next Level by Paul Lundgren, CTRL+ALT+Duluth by Michael Kooi, John's Advice Column by John Ramos and Novelty Theater by Jim Richardson & Alan Richardson. The Transistor rotates the clever, original and eye-catching comix of The Guys Who Never Stop Fighting, The Slightly Exaggerated True History of Abraham Lincoln, Double Your Efforts, the work of Luke Holden and upcoming featured illustrators.

• The Transistor is available at high foot-traffic entertainment areas like UMD, historic & greater downtown Duluth, Canal Park, UWS, Tower Avenue in Superior as well as music stores, bookstores, restaurants, nightlife venues and hippie grocery stores.

• Free circulation allows the Transistor to directly target an entertainment-oriented and progressive audience where these adults live, work and play. The eight-page format, designed for optimal counter space visibility and portability, encourages tourists and locals alike to pick one up and put it in their pockets to read at their leisure.

FINITE AD SPACE
Transistor ad rates are irresistibly inexpensive (starting at $35/week with ad design included). Add to that limited advertising space and you get more bang for your buck. There is simply no way readers can miss your ad every time they consult the calendar throughout the week.
