The Big Issue launches 2025 Calendar

It’s that time of the year! The Big Issue 2025 Calendar is now on sale.

This year the 2025 Calendar showcases The Big Issue vendors and their hobbies, including record collecting, reading, biking, basketball, fishing and swimming.

The calendar features vendors all around Australia, including Daniel in Canberra, Denise in Sydney, Dennis in Brisbane, Kellee in Perth, Michael in Melbourne and Ron in Adelaide.

Alongside the beautiful portraits of vendors and their stories, the calendar also features special cartoons from resident cartoonist Andrew Weldon.

Amy Hetherington, The Big Issue editor, says: “The Big Issue vendors are more than just street magazine sellers. Exploring their hobbies and who they are beyond the fluoro vest in the 2025 Calendar allows us to know and connect with vendors in a new way.

“As we head into the festive season, vendors will be selling the calendar alongside the magazine. The calendar makes for a great gift and provides a welcome income boost during what is often a tough time for people living on the margins.”

The Big Issue 2025 Calendar is available from vendors around the country for $20. Vendors purchase the calendar for $8 and sell it for $20, earning $12 for every calendar sold. Vendors accept payment via cash, tap & go, or PayID via your banking app.

If you’re not close to a vendor, don’t worry! Calendars are also available at our Shopify store.
