About Dumbo Feather

Dumbo Feather is an iconic Australian magazine. Published quarterly for seven years, and distributed globally to newsagents, retailers, cafes, boutiques, and a strong subscriber base, it reaches a dedicated print readership of 30,000. Hailed around the world as a design leader, it is a magazine like no other.

Our readers are people who want to be told a different story than the one they hear every day. Each quarterly issue features five extended (20 page) profiles of people worth knowing, across enterprise, education, science, sport, politics, fashion and the arts. Whether they’ve touched millions, or just those around them, we take the time to get to know these people, and ask them to tell us their stories.

We combine award-winning, often radical art direction with a commitment to photographic storytelling every bit as strong as we have to the written word. The result is a magazine that is as beautiful as it is smart—every issue is a gift.

“Dumbo Feather is a modern-day classic"
– Three Thousand

“A dense, engaging read that begs you to sit down and spend a couple of hours slowly soaking it in."
– Mag Nation

“An Australian publication with glamor, serendipity and abandon crossed with rigor, detail and thoughtfulness."
– Future Underground People

“Settle in with a glass of wine, dip in and out, allow some of the words to settle. This isn’t a one-tram-ride filler. Dumbo feather is entrée, slow-cooked main course, and dessert."
– Louisa Deasey, Girl With a Satchel

“Where I go to be told a story about something and someone I didn’t know existed. A mix of visual storytelling with the written word – a pleasure to read"
– Brendan McKnight, Desktop Magazine
