We love shining a light on creative people, projects, and stories. From artists and designers to publishers, studios, and entrepreneurs, there are lots of ways to get involved – here's how.
We receive a high volume of submissions, so while we can't reply to every message, we carefully review each one. If your pitch is successful, we'll be in touch. To give yourself the best chance, please follow our submission guidelines. And just a quick note: we don't accept pitches via social media – email is always the way.
If you're a PR professional, please also read our PR Pitch Guidelines. These explain who we are, what we cover, and who reads us – to help you pitch in a way that feels relevant and valuable to our readers. For guaranteed coverage, please see our Advertising opportunities.
Got breaking news or a timely announcement relevant to the creative industries? We'd love to hear from you. Send your press release, imagery, and any supporting details to [email protected], and we'll consider it for coverage on Creative Boom, reaching over a million creatives every month.
Are you an artist, designer, illustrator, animator, photographer, filmmaker, or maker? We showcase new and established talent under our Inspiration section.
When submitting, please include:
Agencies and studios: please send full project details, images and videos to [email protected].
Are you a freelancer, studio owner, or creative leader with an experience, story, or perspective others could learn from? We're keen on behind-the-scenes stories, commentary, and lessons learned for our Insight section. Email your pitch and details to [email protected].
Got practical advice for creatives, or a tool, book, or resource worth sharing? We're always looking for relevant ideas that genuinely help creatives for our Tips and Resources sections. Send details to [email protected].
For book submissions: we regularly feature new titles – from inspiring monographs and guides to coffee-table favourites. We're happy to review digital copies, but if you can send a physical book, even better – we love to feature them in photography and socials.

Creative Boom has always been more than a magazine and podcast. It's a thriving community. And now we've brought everyone together inside our own private membership, The Studio, launched in February 2025. With nearly 7,000 members, we host Studio Sessions: virtual webinars with inspiring creatives designed to share advice, spark conversation, and support our community. We also host Creative Boom IRL, laidback social events run by volunteer hosts across the UK. There are 10 current events in Belfast,
If you'd like to suggest a speaker, propose a theme, or partner with us on a future Studio Session, please get in touch at [email protected].
