A new home for your Southland Times online
We’ve been here when it counts, covering the successes and the challenges, the triumphs and the shortcomings.
For nearly 160 years, The Southland Times has proudly represented the people and interests of Invercargill and Southland.
Our experienced local journalists have a strong history with the area and the newspaper, and they take pride in their work.
They strive to get the stories you need to know about.
The Southland region continues to make waves, be it for our sporting successes or as a backdrop for groundbreaking technology.
So I am delighted to confirm that
The Southland Times is also looking forward confidently to a strong future with the launch today of a new digital home for our content that is exclusive to our subscribers and digital subscribers to The Press, The Post and the Waikato Times.
Our daily print subscribers will be given full access to this digital version for free, while digital-only subscribers can sign up for access to
The Southland Times’ independent journalism, wherever they live.
As a subscriber you will also have full access to all our journalism from print and digital publications around the country published by The Press, The Post and the Waikato Times – making it easy to keep across developments at the Beehive or check in on the latest eatery for your next visit to Christchurch.
As well as all the news, features and analysis available to our print subscribers, you will have access to three new online-only daily puzzles: a quick crossword, the Codecracker and Sudoku.
Remember that by investing in a subscription to The Southland Times you are supporting local journalism and a news team that is committed to this community, to finding out how our elected representatives are spending our money, to investigating the scoundrels attempting to rip us off, and to airing the issues facing our region.
We are also committed to working together to make Southland a better place. This includes supporting events such at the Surf to City, getting behind the Hawthorndale Care Village dementia care development, and sponsoring prizes at the Southland Business Excellence Awards and the Southland Sports Awards.
Our journalists know their work is both a privilege and a public service.
Thank you for being a subscriber and helping to keep The Southland Times a strong independent voice for Southland.
