Background

Dazed was started in 1991. Beginning as a black-and-white folded poster published sporadically, the magazine soon turned full colour, promoted with London club nights.

Dazed film and television

In 1999 Dazed Film & TV was founded, a production company that would produce the first masthead television broadcast ever, the one-hour special Renegade TV Gets Dazed, for Channel 4. In 2001 the Dazed Group, as it styled itself, launched the luxury biannual AnOther Magazine. In 2005 the Group launched Another Man, a biannual fashion title for men.

In April 2011, Dazed & Confused launched its first live festival in East London, Dazed Live, featuring live music performances from Gang Gang Dance, Factory Floor, Black Devil Disco Club, About Group (featuring Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor), SBTRKT, Caribou, and more.

Dazed Digital

In November 2006, Dazed launched a new web based strand of the magazine titled Dazed Digital, which delivers fashion, film, music and art news and online events.

Artist Award

In 2010 Dazed, partnered with Converse, later also with Resident Advisor, launched its £6000 Emerging Artist Award in association with the Whitechapel Gallery for UK-based commercially unrepresented artists, under the age of 35.
