Hello Kitty magazine has been published by Kennedy Publishing since 2015, bringing Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters to life through adorable activities and cute crafts, says the publisher. The magazine has recently undergone an editorial and design refresh, with a special Hello Kitty 50th anniversary issue going on sale on 26th September 2024. Kennedy Publishing says this special issue includes three party crafts, a themed game, a unique story and an exciting Claire’s competition for Hello Kitty products worth £150.

In addition, Kennedy Publishing says its newly refreshed Colour It – a colouring magazine that encourages creativity through rotating themes – will welcome Hello Kitty for a special edition on sale on 30th October 2024. Featuring 25 colouring pages, three crafts and a Hello Kitty recipe, the issue comes with a Hello Kitty-branded colouring set which includes a notepad, colouring pencils and a multi-coloured pen.

“We're delighted to celebrate such a milestone for the iconic Hello Kitty brand,” says Hello Kitty magazine Editor Madison Halladay. “The magazine is bursting with activities that encourage fun with friends and embraces the party spirit!”

The publisher says both issues will be available at all key retailers, with Hello Kitty priced at £5.99 and Colour It at £6.99.
