45+ Free Premium WordPress Themes with Magazine or Grid Layouts

Today I posted the biggest collection until now on the blog. This collection is constituted only of Free Premium WordPress Themes, most of them have magazine or grid layouts.

I don’t know if correctly formulated the phrase “free premium themes“, because as logic a premium theme would be a theme that will be available for money, but I use the term “premium“, just because each of these themes are unique in their way, each have a design and a stylish way, different from the standard themes for WordPress. So, before you criticize this article would be better to have in mind what I said before, in order not to create confusion.

I hope you will enjoy this article, and don’t forget to share it!

  1. thank you for listing my theme!

    Good luck, WPZOOM.

    :D

  2. Wow, great list. Thanks for featuring Tomodachi! ;)

  3. Thanks for the mention(s)!

  4. #5 is the best! Best Themes selections by far.

  5. Wow… I didn’t know there were that much free premium themes out there, thanks for the list!

  6. Thanks for including my wordpress theme and you did a great job. This is the best collection of wordpress themes. Bookmarked!

  7. Nice list except for all the Mimbo theme rip offs. Re-arranging someone else coded and changing a little CSS does not make it ok to republish it as your own.

  8. Thank you for the great list! There’re many unseen themes (for me) :)

  9. This themes are very cool!!!

  10. Love the themes especially #42

  11. Thanks for including Futurosity Eos in your list (as well as Underscore, which I designed before I sold Upstart Blogger). Great list! Some excellent themes here that I hadn’t seen before.

  12. Excellent list. POW!

    Thanks;

  13. beautiful themes, thanks.

  14. Nice roundup, and there were a few that I hadn’t seen before like #1 and #2, which both look great.

  15. This is an awsome list. Thanks :)

  16. Great List…. thanks from Brazil…

  17. I used one of those for my blog :)

  18. Super good collection of wp themes, worthy of a bookmark, I know I had spent nearly 2 hrs to find a OK Theme earlier.
    Will incorportate the themes in my portfolio

  19. Cool List

  20. What an awesome list you have it here. My preference goes for theme #1.

  21. “Free Premium”… That just sounds totally stupid to me.

    Besides this, nice list.

  22. @Ozh, I’m totally agree with you, but I explained why I used this expression in the description of this article ;)

  23. AHHHHH :) Enorme

    Thaaaaank you man. This is fantastic, great, big!!!

  24. An amazing list of Wordpress themes. It’s great to see a good list of actually amazing looking themes, rather than a list slapped together just to get people to click on your adsense links.

  25. This is an AWESOME list.

  26. Nice list :) Though a couple of them look pretty old and lame, but overall the list is great!

  27. exelente muchas gracias !!!

  28. Nice post! Thank you! I was searching for this!

    Ótimo artigo! Obrigado! Estava procurando algo assim!

  29. Great list! You might want to include also these Magazine themes.

  30. Awesome list ! Great !

  31. Great list, thanks for sharing!

  32. Realmente magnificos, maravillosos themes, justo lo que estaba buscando. Muchas gracias

  33. great themes for WP but change them for Blogger :)

    thanks for sharing …
    appreciated …

  38. Really nice list. It’s one of the best I’ve seen in the last year. Thank you for sharing!

  39. Justin Tadlock’s “Structure” Theme needs to be on this list…

    No. 18 is his Options, which is much — better isn’t the best word — more “optionable?” but Structure is clean, functionable and easily customizable.

  40. thank man its great share

  41. Beautiful! I especially like “revolution” and “timeline”

  42. thanx a lot guy, i´m from brazil!!! beauthy layouts.

  43. Hi Pavel, and thanks a lot for your link to OpenBook theme.
    Keep up the good work :)

  44. Thanks. Very Good Themes..

  45. Really nice list.

  46. tx alot dude… :shakehand

    to read my latest post.

  51. its beatufily thank you so much

  52. Owesome!!!, great work and thanks for share

  53. Greet job guys!

  54. “If you liked this post, buy me a coffee if you want..” Sounds quite stupid even more stupid than Free Premium.

  55. Great Work, Great Themes.

  56. Wow.. great wordpress themes.. Love the WP Gold..

  57. excelent list… i can’t pick one of them cause all theme is awsome… ^_^

  58. Be advised! The guy who created the Jello Wala Mello theme sold his website to someone else and there is no more support for it! There is a support forum, but it is unmanaged and filled with spam! I didn’t find this out until I had already spent many hours customizing the theme. I love the theme but have some issues that I have no hope of getting resolved because the creator has left the planet.

  59. Nice List! We will include this in our next toolbar update.

  60. You rock!! I’ve been looking for free premium wordpress and your list came in handy. Awesome list

  61. Thanx for this great list!

  62. Thanks for putting OpenBook in the list!
    Btw, I wrote a tutorial about customizing OpenBook theme, you can read it here.

  63. Thanks for sharing this huge list.

    A lot to choose from.

  64. but premium meaning not free, because of less usage get its premium

  65. Hot collection of themes! I’ll be picking up one for my blog. Great, great, great!

  100. you have forgotten about a great theme from Theme Galaxy called gemini
    http://www.themegalaxy.net/demo/gemini/

  101. The great part about a list with this many items is that they tend to have at least a few that one would want to try out and use. The quality of this list is quite high as I can notice quite a few that one might want to try out after analyzing them for a bit.

  102. That’s the best listing I ever saw (and I was looking for something like that for hours!)

    Thank you SO much !

  103. Nice list except for all the Mimbo theme rip offs. Re-arranging someone else coded and changing a little CSS does not make it ok to republish it as your own.

  273. This is a great list. I just looked through all of them. Thanks for taking the time to do this. I noticed that many of the themes that you use to be able to get for free are now premium themes for purchase or part of a membership site.
    If I launch a free theme I keep it as a free theme, isn’t that the point? or am i missing something?

  274. i like these templates,
