A new local newspaper called Vores Vestegn will be launched in Copenhagen's West Region by Kickoff Media, which has previously focused on football, following the closure of four local weeklies by Sjællandske Medier.
In a significant development for local news coverage, Kickoff Media has announced the launch of a new local newspaper named Vores Vestegn, which is set to debut in 2026. This move comes on the heels of Sjællandske Medier's recent decision to shut down four weeklies in Greater Copenhagen and close associated offices in Glostrup and Helsingør. The launch indicates a potential revitalization of local journalism in the area, which has seen declines in print media.
