V (Finnish magazine)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
V was a Finnish monthly free-of-charge magazine.[1] The magazine was published by the Finnish publisher Sanoma and was distributed at 320 places in the Helsinki capital region, Tampere and Turku.[2] Distribution included 85 thousand copies in the capital region as well as 20 thousand each in Tampere and in Turku.[3]
The magazine launched in 2006 aimed at the young adult generation of 20- to 30-year-olds. The magazine was based on the Nöjesguiden magazine published by Medianorth Group. Sanoma bought the magazine from Medianorth Group in 2005 and changed its name to V.[4] Its content was mostly similar to other similar magazines such as City, Nöjesguiden and Metropoli. The first issue was published in spring 2006.
Because of low popularity, V was discontinued in late May 2007 as a separate magazine and incorporated into Metro.
