Arctic Monkeys and The Big Issue partner to publish exclusive photographs

The Big Issue is publishing eight pages of unseen, exclusive photographs only in next week's edition of the magazine

Arctic Monkeys, now out on tour in support of new album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino, have partnered with The Big Issue to publish an exclusive collection of photographs of the band in next week’s edition of the magazine.

On sale Monday September 10, the special edition will feature eight pages of unseen photographs, with band frontman and centre of gravity Alex Turner talking us through the exclusive collection.

A special edition of this magazine will also be on sale at Arctic Monkeys live shows in the UK throughout September. If you’re going along, look out for our vendors. If you can’t make it and you want to add the special edition to your Arctic Monkey’s collection, head to The Big Issue Shop.

We’re delighted and honoured Arctic Monkeys came to us with these exclusive photos. They are a band who put their money where their mouth is. They know that for 27 years The Big Issue has been offering a hand up to the poorest and most marginalised people in Britain. They support our work and make sure our vendors, out on the streets of Britain every single day working to make a living, are not forgotten. We thank them.

If you can’t find a vendor near you, you can pick up your copy from The Big Issue Shop

Support your local Big Issue vendor

If you can’t get to your local vendor every week, subscribing directly to them online is the best way to support your vendor. Your chosen vendor will receive 50% of the profit from each copy and the rest is invested back into our work to create opportunities for people affected by poverty.
