About us

At present time the magazine named “Time Out” is issued in over 15 capitals of the world. The first edition of “Time Out Tashkent” magazine was published on 28^th November, 2003. This was a small (only 12 pages) black-and-white magazine. The next issue was published on 24^thDecember – still small in volume. The readers’ responses of these first editions were favorable, and so the third edition timed for St. Valentine’s Day was created with great enthusiasm from the side of the editorial staff. Their effort was not put in vain. The readers responded to the articles but expressed the desire to see the future issues in color.

From March 2004 the magazine began to be published every month in color. Work on this magazine was worth continuing, and so in March 2004 the private company “Time Out” was registered in Tashkent (certificate No. 000380 dated 22 March 2004).
