At Narcity Media Group, we’re building the future of local media, and we want you to be a part of our Global Neighbourhood. NMG is a digital-only media company that owns and operates Narcity.com and MTLBlog.com . Our staff and network of world-class creators interact with millions of Millennials and Gen Zs monthly through our websites, social channels, mobile apps, syndication partners, and email subscriptions.
Our audience is interested in the national, the local, and the hyper-local — simultaneously. That is why our teams of writers, editors, and content creators keep our audience informed on everything from breaking news and trending content to the best travel spots to add to your bucket list and restaurants to eat at. Readers may come to Narcity to find out where to go for dinner, but they’ll leave with information on the biggest stories of the day to talk about over their meal.
Narcity Media’s Editorial team is made up of energetic multi-platform content creators who know how to engage with Gen Z and Millennial readers, helping them discover the undiscovered by highlighting the most interesting news, places, people, and ideas in their cities and beyond.
