Born from a love of live music and local heritage, The Hanwell Hootie has grown from a small community event into one of London’s largest free music festivals. Created to celebrate Hanwell’s deep connection to music — the birthplace of Marshall Amplification — the Hootie now attracts thousands of visitors each year across dozens of venues.
48k Audio was proud to be part of the production team, providing lighting systems, control desks, and live mixing expertise to help stages across Hanwell look and sound their best.
Working alongside organisers, engineers, and local talent, we helped deliver a festival that captures the spirit of grassroots music — authentic, energetic, and full of community pride. From pub stages to open-air sets, the Hootie remains a showcase of live music culture, powered by people who love great sound.
