Monocle Alpino Newspaper 2024

Monocle's snowiest title of the year has bracing takes on diplomacy, hospitality, art and design from the world's peaks and cooler climes. We visit Europe's best Christmas markets for a masterclass in festive hosting, ask the former first lady of Iceland what she thinks draws tourists to the country, and find out about the artworks dotting Utah's Powder Mountain. Grab a pair of salopettes and some Glühwein, we're hitting the slopes.

The Monocle Book of Italy

Coming hot on the heels of the best-selling The Monocle Book of Japan, our new book turns its focus to Italy. It's a country that feels comfortingly familiar for many, yet beyond the clich’s lies a complexity and variety that's perpetually surprising. For more than a decade, Monocle has roamed the length of the nation and The Monocle Book of Italy is the result of our dedicated reporting. Join us as we throw down our towels at the best beaches, sit front row at dazzling runway shows, call in at vineyards, gelato spots and furniture fairs, and maybe even hit a disco or two. See Italy through a whole new lens.

Monocle's September issue includes a media special, which charts the newsrooms and anchors building trust, bolstering their brands and setting the agenda.

Plus: what you missed from the world of travel, including island escapes, itineraries, new hotels, and the latest takeoff and what's coming down the track in aviation and train travel. All aboard?

Issue 150

Monocle's 150th issue features a special report on humour: what makes people laugh around the world, can politicians be funny and why do people keep telling jokes that could land them in jail? We feature a report from the ground in a changing Ukraine, put some fresh activewear through its paces and learn the value of a tongue-in-cheek attitude to advertising.
