Launched in 2004 and published in print six times a year, Bethesda Magazine covers the topics that are interesting and important to residents of Montgomery County and Upper Northwest D.C.—from restaurants, real estate and home design to pressing community issues and local people making a difference. Bethesda Magazine also hosts several signature events, including the Best of Bethesda party and the Women Who Inspire luncheon.
Our digital newsroom has had several names since it was launched in 2014—Bethesda Beat, MoCo360 and now Bethesda Today. Since the start, we’ve been the primary source of local news in Montgomery County. Publishing an average of 35 stories a week, we deliver trusted, timely and in-depth reporting. Whether it’s holding our elected officials to account, ensuring transparency in our schools or reporting breaking news with clarity and urgency, we’re committed to journalism that informs, connects and strengthens our entire county.
Our Mission
This mission is powered by our readers—a growing community built on the idea that informed residents create stronger neighborhoods, better schools and a more responsive local government.
Recognition
Writers have received recognition for their stories published in Bethesda Magazine over the years, including awards from the American Society of Journalists and Authors and the Society of Professional Journalists.
