Love This City: The Thousands

Brisbane Indesign welcomes online culture vultures The Thousands as media sponsors for the big event.

March 2nd, 2012

Since 2005, The Thousands have been helping its readers discover the newest and best things to do in their cities. The motley band of locals behind the website and iPhone app scours Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth on a daily basis, sussing out all that’s worth seeing, doing, eating and buying.

Published in website and iPhone app formats, The Thousands are useful for event reminders and last-minute adventure ideas. But they’re also a reliable constant reference, curated by people who love their cities and strive for them to be interesting and inspiring places to be.

The Thousands describe their readers as loving “independent projects, nice clothes, new music, good reading, honest reviews, hard-to-find lunch places, art, art openings and free drinks.”

With a mutual love of what’s great about our cities, we’re proud to be working with The Thousands as media partners of this year’s Brisbane Indesign.
