About the Magazine
The special April 2022 edition of the San Diego Earth Times provides a premier opportunity to reach an audience with a demonstrated concern for the environment EarthFair attendees. In addition, advertisers directly show their support for the environment by supporting EarthFair and other San Diego Earth Day activities.
Now in its 29th year of publication, each issue of SDET contains a wide variety of articles and editorials highlighting issues of concern about our environment, nature and health. In addition, this issue will contain the EarthFair Program Guide, with a map of the Park listing the exhibitors and events planned for the day.
If you would like a review copy of last year’s issue, please call and we will mail you one. Or, click here to download a PDF copy.
Circulation and Distribution
The magazine will be distributed for free, with a press run of 25,000 copies. Approximately 20,000 of these will be distributed through local San Diego retail businesses and service organizations 3 weeks prior to EarthFair. The remaining 5,000 will be distributed at EarthFair. Each year, EarthFair draws around 50,000 visitors.

SDET is printed in “flexy” format (8.1" x 10.4"). The interior pages will be printed on recycled newsprint using soy-based ink. The cover (and certain interior pages) will feature brilliant 4-color artwork.
A wide variety of ad sizes are available to meet your needs. We can provide custom design and layout services to communicate your message and help maximize reader response. Color and special placements are available for an additional charge.
