The real life weekly magazine will be the third title from the collaboration between Australian Consolidated Press and The National Magazine Company.
Real People will enter into the increasingly competitive women's weekly sector priced at 60p.
ACP-Natmag currently publishes the weekly titles Reveal and Best in the UK.
Colin Morrison, chief Executive of ACP-NatMag, said: "Real People is the exciting product of 18 months' R&D, and represents our latest multi-million pound investment in the dynamic weekly magazine market where total copy sales increased by some 20% during 2005."
Media planning and buying for REAL PEOPLE is being handled by Initiative Media. The campaign includes TV, outdoor and press, under the slogan: "There's a time and a place to share your story".
