As Port celebrates its 15th anniversary, its familiar static logo is revived and complemented with a hand drawn version of ‘15 years’ by each of its six cover stars: Maude Apatow, James Norton, Leo Woodall, Headie One, Robert Aramayo, and Naomi Ackie.
This Spring/Summer 2026 issue—one out of two anniversary specials—loosely revolves around themes of reflection, taking stock and the search for meaning amidst global instability. Inside, find an interview with author and activist Rebecca Solnit; a return to Port’s inaugural issue through the words of the late Robert Hughes; a conversation between literary legends Olivia Laing and Charlie Porter over a long lunch at Soho institution Quo Vadis, hosted by its proprietor Jeremy Lee; a feature on artist Thomas J Price and his large-scale sculptures created in collaboration with the V&A East; and much more. Plus, tucked between its pages, you’ll find the latest Port Watch special.
