Death of Non-Executive Director

The Board of Time Out Group plc (LSE: TMO) is deeply saddened to announce the death of Tony Elliott, Time Out founder and non-executive of Time Out Group plc. The Board extends its deepest sympathies to Tony's wife, Janey Elliott and their family and would like to acknowledge both his achievement in creating a global iconic brand and the immeasurable contribution he has made to the cultural development of London and so many other cities around the world.

Peter Dubens, Chairman of Time Out said today:

"We are saddened by the loss of such a great visionary, entrepreneur and supporter of culture and the arts. We have been lucky enough to work alongside Tony for the last 10 years, partnering with him to inspire audiences in 327 cities throughout the world.

In 1968 Tony set out to reveal the best of a city to his readers, helping them discover its restaurants, art, theatre, film, museums and much more. Time Out may have since grown from magazines to digital media and latterly physical markets, but it has continued to focus on Tony's mission to unlock the secrets of a city and unearth local champions. He will be missed by the whole team at Time Out."
