The Nightly unveils its premium digital travel magazine ROAM – Seven West Media’s national digital news brand, The Nightly, will this weekend debut ROAM, its premium digital travel magazine created for Australia’s curious wanderers and adventure seekers.
Launching on Saturday, ROAM is designed for the modern explorer: people who chase wild beauty, sleep in designer hotels, eat with locals and seek stories that go beyond the guidebook. ROAM’s mission is to capture the culture, contradictions and quiet wonder that define contemporary travel.
In its debut edition, ROAM takes readers into the multi-million dollar Indigenous tourism sector, speaking to a wealth of operators such as WA’s El Questro about the positive moves being made to build the relationship between travellers, heritage and Country.
ROAM also ventures to the Japanese tropics, looks at wellness through the prism of “Blue Zones”, sits down with British supermodel David Gandy, talks to award-winning Sydney restaurateurs-turned-hoteliers, and asks the question “Is Australia’s increasing overregulation tarnishing our international appeal?”.
The Nightly’s new Editorial Director of Travel, Richard Clune, said:
“With ROAM we’re bringing The Nightly’s journalistic rigour, curiosity and passion for storytelling to the world of travel.
“ROAM goes far beyond the lists and clichés of traditional travel journalism to tell authentic, in-depth stories that reveal the people, places and cultures shaping the best destinations and experiences.
“ROAM will deliver stories that balance inspiration with information, are premium but approachable, practical yet never ordinary and always smart,”
– he said.
The Nightly’s Editor-in-Chief, Christopher Dore, said:
“ROAM is the latest iteration of The Nightly, which is re-defining what publishing looks like in the digital era.
“The newspaper and magazine aesthetic coupled with the exceptional writing presented beautifully on your phone, at just the right time, is the perfect marriage of journalism with the modern reader.”
Launched in February 2024, The Nightly has established itself as a key player in the Australian media sector, featuring some of the best journalists and agenda-setting commentators in the country. It continues to expand its digital offerings, with The Nightly On Innovation also launching this week.
The debut edition of ROAM will be available on The Nightly this Saturday, 20 September 2025.
