About Swell Magazine

Swell Magazine is a local Newcastle Publication, written as the perfect companion for your sunny Sunday morning. Designed as a collectors item, something to have and to hold, the pages of Swell are to be enjoyed slowly and devoured and returned to time and time again. Swell is all about celebrating the city we love and the community they’re a part of. 

In This Issue (Issue 10)

For this edition, we feature a taste of the sweetest treats in town, an in-depth profile on a local queer icon, and detail the best way to sip and swirl your way through the Hunter Valley. Given we’ve made it this far, this issue also focuses on a theme of resilience as we deep dive into what it’s like to make a drastic career change and take a swing with a long-standing local fitness institution.
