City was founded in 1985 by the firsteditor-in-chiefEeropekka Rislakki and media academicKim Weckström, as its purpose to bring to Finland "city culture" that had been mostly missing in that country before. In 1986 the initially subscription based monthly changed format to a free monthly tabloid. The new editor-in-chiefKari Kivelä developed the paper towards a more popular format with a combination fashion-, lifestyle- and entertainment listings content.[1]
From 1986 to 2012 the magazine was available in various public places in all of Finland's larger cities, includingHelsinki,Tampere,Turku andLahti. Each city had its own localised version of the magazine.
In 2012City ceased print publication and became an online-only magazine.[2]
