Out of Hand History

It all started in 1994...

Just a group of mates bundling flyers into handy little A5 packs in a spare room in Bristol. Driving hundreds of miles every weekend to hand them out to dewy-eyed ravers as they emerged from the clubs in the wee hours.

Our trademark flyer packs evolved into a full-blown street lifestyle, music and listings magazine that firmly cemented itself in the hearts and minds of clubbers and music lovers across the South West and Wales. In 1997 this plucky start-up became a registered limited company, and we’ve never looked back since!

We now offer a full 360 degree integrated service, including:

  • Local and National flyer / poster distribution
  • Arts, Cultural, Event and Music marketing
  • Outdoor street level poster network
  • Roadside billboard advertising
  • Digital, Lithographic and large format printing
  • Creative Design for digital and physical media
  • Publishing (magazines and brochures)
  • Media Buying
We specialise in working with venues, promoters and individuals in the arts, cultural, music and entertainment sector, alongside local and regional businesses and charities of all shapes and sizes.

With over 30 years of experience and a wealth of knowledge in the industry, we pride ourselves on the customer service we offer, made possible by a great team who are excited to come to work every day. Whether it’s tackling new challenges, managing tight deadlines, problem solving or bringing unusual briefs to life, no two days are the same.
