Launched in 1991 as Dazed & Confused and conceived as an alternative to mainstream style, fashion and culture magazines, Dazed is now a big name itself, with global distribution and a host of sister publications including Another Magazine and Hunger.

For Summer 2026, this sports-led ‘Action Issue’ brings together an inspiring cast of athletes, actors and musicians, each demonstrating that success and talent in any industry is driven by one essential force: action. As editor-in-chief Ted Stansfield writes in his opening letter: ‘While the current state of the world can feel overwhelming, even paralysing, these people remain active—passionate, creative, alive. We hope their stories inspire you to do the same.’

Inside, you’ll find interviews with sporting trailblazers setting new benchmarks, from Arvid Lindblad, the youngest person to represent Britain in F1, to the American figure skater Ilia Malinin—otherwise known as ‘Quad God’—who became the youngest person to land a quadruple axel in competition. Elsewhere, action manifests with more political dimensions, with photographer Gareth McConnell capturing the faces of protesters marching against the US and Israel’s illegal war on Iran, while a feature on the Palestinian football team Lajee Celtic explores how taking to the pitch becomes an act of resilience in the face of adversity. Plus, hear from it-girl cover stars Industry lead Myha’la and singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo about moving forward into the next chapter of their lives.
