History
''Eurozine'' emerged from an informal network dating back to 1983. Since that time, editors of various European cultural magazines have met once a year in European cities to exchange ideas and experiences.
In 1995, the meeting took place in Vienna. The success of this meeting, in which numerous eastern European magazines participated for the first time, and the rapid development of the Internet, encouraged the editors to reinforce the existing loose network with a virtual but more systematic one. ''Eurozine'' was established in 1998.
Today, ''Eurozine'' hosts the "European Meeting of Cultural Journals" each year together with one or more of its partners.
