Empire Launches VIP Subscriber Club

Empire VIP Club

Empire has always been more than just a magazine. For over 30 years, it’s been a way to celebrate the movies that matter to us the most, a community for film lovers, and the ultimate destination for the latest and greatest writing on the delights of the big screen. Plus, it’s where filmmakers come to talk about their latest projects, and to discuss the films that mean the most to them. More importantly, it’s always been about you, the readers – the people who love cinema just as much as Team Empire does, who speak passionately and lovingly about their favourite flicks, and (when not in lockdown) can regularly be found at the local multiplex or arthouse cinema (or both).

Regular readers have long been able to subscribe to Empire, and get their issues of the magazine delivered monthly. Now, we’re proud to present the new Empire VIP Subscriber club – a comprehensive membership subscription for our film-loving community that encompasses Empire magazine, the Empire Spoiler Special Podcast, access to live events with the Empire team, and a Picturehouse membership. It’s a pretty great gang to be part of, with some pretty great perks – and no weird initiation ritual, either. Promise! If you’re an Empire devotee, it’s all the mag, podcast, events and cinema goodness you could want, all in one handy package.
