. As of October 2015, the journal publishes letters in addition to regular articles. There was a companion website to the main journal, CQG+ which highlighted high quality papers published in the journal to raise the visibility of those papers. It also featured film reviews related to gravity such as '' Interstellar'' and '' The Theory of Everything ''. ''Classical and Quantum Gravity'' also supports the field of gravitational physics through sponsorship of the British Gravity Meeting.
