contents A graph $Γ= (V,E)$ of order $n$ is {\em distance magic} if it admits a bijective labeling $\ell \colon V \to \{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ of its vertices for which there exists a positive integer $κ$ such that $\sum_{u \in N(v)} \ell(u) = κ$ for all vertices $v \in V$, where $N(v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$. %It is well known that a regular distance magic graph is necessarily of even valency. A {\em circulant} is a graph admitting an automorphism cyclically permuting its vertices. In this paper we study distance magic circulants of valency $6$. We obtain some necessary and some sufficient conditions for a circulant of valency $6$ to be distance magic, thereby finding several infinite families of examples. The combined results of this paper provide a partial classification of all distance magic circulants of valency $6$. In particular, we classify distance magic circulants of valency $6$, whose order is not divisible by $12$.
