About this event

magCulture Live returns! The annual conference championing the creativity at the heart of magazine culture is back in real life. As ever, they’ll be highlighting great magazine work across art direction, editing, photography, illustration and typography, but it’s also a day to celebrate magazines!

magCulture Live will take place on Thursday 4th November back at their regular home, Conway Hall in central London. Bringing together the magazine community to share brilliant examples of creative magazine-making from across the mainstream and independent sectors, celebrating what has been a great year (against all odds) for publishing!
