Time Out, originally titled ‘Where It’s At’, was first launched as a newsletter in 1968 by Tony Elliot - who was then just 21 years old.
In 2012, the magazine cost £3.25 - but later that same year, a slimmed-down version was relaunched, which was free.
In March 2020, it was temporarily rebranded as Time In - in line with isolation rules during the pandemic - and covered more at home entertainment.

She wrote: “It’s been a privilege and a pleasure to serve you in print for 54 years. Long may our love affair continue.
"Thank you to the expert, hilarious mavericks who made this mag: there’s no better team in the business.
"Thank you Londoners for going out with us for half a century."
Time Out will now focus on their digital content.
To mark the end of their time as a print magazine, four local artists have created front covers which represent the capital as it is right now.
