Time Out London has unveiled its user generated issue of the magazine, as the magazine marks one year since it moved to a free distribution model.

Billed as ‘The Great Time Out Takeover’, the content for this week’s magazine has been entirely created by a team of 150 readers, chosen by Time Out’s section editors, following a competition hosted on the Time Out website.

Tim Arthur, CEO of Time Out, said: “We wanted to celebrate the first anniversary of the magazine going free with our readers, as they are just as passionate about London as we are. The standard of entries we received was exceptionally high and it was evident just how much our readers love their city. We’ve had a fantastic time putting together the pages of this issue with our winning team, who displayed a real talent for capturing the wit, knowledge and unique spirit that has made Time Out such an iconic brand over the last 45 years.”

The Great Time Out Takeover issue will be distributed across London today.

In July, The Drum created a live issue of the magazine, with readers helping to mold the features.
