Mission Statement – ‘To be the UK’s foremost free regional national magazine for the discerning 18-35 year old’

With eleven years experience in free magazine publishing, often copied but never equalled, DV8 is an appealing means of communication to a generation of consumers who resist normal advertising. Free to pick up, DV8 is a niche market product and it is distributed to bars, cafes, restaurants, nightclubs, fashion shops, office blocks, health clubs, record shops and hair salons – primarily the venues in any given city that our target market audience continually frequent.

DV8 is much more than just a listings magazine; it’s a cultural lifestyle glossy, qualified by the high quality, interesting national and local editorial content. Past top class interviews have included Mitchell and Webb, Kate Hudson, Meryl Streep, Kevin Spacey, George Clooney, Jamelia, Jennifer Lopez and Cameron Diaz. Editorial features have included subjects as diverse as coverage of the V Festival, Detox Diaries, Freshers Guide, Haunted Houses and hangover cures! We live in an age that as Andy Warhol put it ‘people want to be famous for five minutes’; consequently we love to showcase our readers out enjoying themselves in our gallery pages.

DV8 currently publishes monthly magazines in Bristol, Bournemouth, Clapham, Manchester and Southampton as well as annual ‘Definitive Guides’ to each area. The DV8 concept being why can you not go to Edinburgh, Leeds, Nottingham, Bristol and Bournemouth and pick up a DV8 tailormade for each individual city.

We recognise that our readers are transient in nature and therefore our website www.dv8online.co.uk helps to bind all areas of the country where we currently publish magazines. We try to keep our website constantly updated and under review and we give our readers the ability to view the whole magazine online in our revolutionary page turning program. Currently this website receives over 5000 unique visitors a month.
