Media Manche

It is an institution in the Cotentin region. Alongside other daily or weekly newspapers dealing with local news, La Presse de la Manche has been an undeniable success. This success is due to its almost exhaustive coverage of local news, almost village by village! Covering a geographical area stretching from the north of the department to the center of Manche, the newspaper, printed 7 days a week, also offers a lot of practical information and, at the end of the newspaper, two pages on national and international news.

This free paper weekly, called C'est à Cherbourg, is distributed throughout the town. The publication, already present on social networks, has managed in just a few years to find a loyal and interested readership. And it's true that it's rather well done, and successful: cultural outings, practical information, good deals, nothing is missing from this rather clever, and very pretty, publication. Finding the publication couldn't be easier: visit one of the 150 partner distributors (most of them stores)!

It is one of the radio institutions of the Cotentin region, and for many years it has held the upper hand over other local and national radio stations. France Bleu Cotentin, which some of the older listeners still call "Radio France Cherbourg", offers programmes that combine proximity, information and music. From the weather forecast to the horoscope or the agenda of events in the Cotentin region, from Cherbourg to Valognes and from Barneville to Fermanville, without forgetting the space left for dialogue with listeners, it is the radio cocktail that wins.

A complete and almost exhaustive weekly magazine, with a wide range of topics. La Manche Libre, France's leading regional periodical, has seven editions, two of which are in Calvados (Saint Lô, Coutances, Avranches, Cherbourg, Granville, Bayeux and Vire). The paper is structured around several sections, from international news to local information, and offers a magazine detailing television programmes. Part of the same group as Tendance Ouest radio, the weekly is very popular with locals.

It is the only magazine that predicted the reunification of Normandy well before it became official in 2015! Every two months, it contains all the political, economic and cultural information of the five Normandy departments, offering a wealth of practical information and ideas for discovery. It is a format of several dozen pages in colour, and sometimes in English as some of the subjects presented are translated in parallel. Welcome to the subjects of Her Gracious Majesty who love Normandy!

It's all in the name: Normandie Passion is the magazine for lovers of the region (and visitors arriving here for the first time), and of course of the Manche department! From heritage to history, from what's new to explore to trends, unusual accommodation and sport, you'll find everything you need in this comprehensive magazine. It's available in two formats: paper or digital. Beautifully crafted, it's well worth buying, as its price is particularly reasonable.
