Why should you advertise in Hot House?

Pay for your ad online!

The oldest jazz magazine in New York known by its readers as the New York’s Jazz BIBLE since 1982

Reaches over 60,000 jazz fan readers who count on us every month to make their jazz entertainment plans and do their CDs purchase selection

The fastest growing jazz publication in the Tri-state area: from a “little jazz guide” of 16 pages in 2002 to a publication averaging 40 pages (with a peak of 68 in June 2008) full of advertising and never less than 16 columns of listings

The best distribution:

  • Delivered in 150 locations in Manhattan, 250 in NY, CT and NJ. In a Hot House counter display personally refilled the last weekend of each month so our publication can’t be missed by the attendance and your ad get the exposure it deserves.
  • Exclusive distribution at Birdland, “the jazz corner of the world” where Hot House is the only magazine available to be picked up by buses of tourists and jazz fans.
  • The earliest to hit the streets, like clock work the last Thursday of each month.
  • Personally mailed to the every concierge of all main upscale hotels in Manhattan so they can advise their customers in their concert selections.
  • Distributed in Jazz festivals and outdoor events

Many marquee venues advertise exclusively with Hot House: Birdland, Zinc, Jazzmobile, among them

Hot House is the only magazine devoted solely to previews. It features artists who are going to appear in local venues the same month the readers get Hot House, which brings the attendance to the events.

Hot House is the best return on your advertising budget, giving you more bang for your buck.
We are proud to quote John Malatesta - Managing Director of Baruch Performing Arts Center, previously Marketing Director at Tribeca Performing Arts Center: “I personally know that Hot House Magazine is what the jazz fans read. I have seen the audience members in the lobby at Jack Kleinsinger’s [Highlights in Jazz] concerts grab Hot House and pass over the other magazines. Plus, tickets for my jazz concerts have always sold incredibly well through my Hot House advertising… Hot House is truly the leading jazz magazine in NYC!!!”.

About our Online Advertising

HotHouseJazz.com utilizes a technology that gives all our advertisers maximum exposure time. With most other websites your ad will be placed on one page of the website (for example the "calendar" page or the "Previous Issues" page) and it will be forced to stay there. This only gives you exposure when someone visits that specific page.

As an advertiser, you want to be placed on the best pages, giving you the most exposure possible. HotHouseJazz.com does exactly that by using a rotating ad system. Each and every time any page on HotHouseJazz.com is loaded, a new advertiser will also be loaded. This guarantees you the best possible placement within HotHouseJazz.com. Your ad with HotHouseJazz.com will be displayed everywhere you see our current advertisements, not just on one page.
