IPC’s indie music mag NME has undergone a complete redesign, supported by a print and online marketing campaign running within other IPC brands.
The new look magazine has a new logo and new layout, with more words on the page and supplementary breakout information.
The changes are unveiled in this week’s issue, out tomorrow (7 April).

The relaunch is supported by a large print and online marketing campaign running within IPC brands including Nuts, Loaded, Uncut, Now, Look, and Marie Claire, as well as on NME TV and NME Radio, with additional support from external partners including the Independent, Time Out, and AMG Music Academy Venues.
IPC estimates the campaign will reach eight million 15-34 year olds.
