The Brentford Festival attracts a large swathe of locals from across the borough of Hounslow and what better way to reach them and give them a taster of the Festival and our live music stages than an exciting partnership that is a first both for the Festival and local radio station 91.8 HayesFM.
We are delighted to announce that for the very first time, we’ll be broadcasting live on radio during the Festival. 91.8 HayesFM with their Breakfast Show host Chris Chilvers will be broadcasting live in Boston Manor Park on September 5th from midday.
Managing Editor Sutish K Sharma adds, "this is wonderful example of partnership working at its best, Hayes FM with the Brentford Festival team bring communities together showcasing the best of our local talent in West London'
Not only will we have Chris Chilvers broadcasting at the event, but HayesFM
will be MC’ing the live stage. We will be bringing a waft of the live radio road shows of Radio 1 past and present to Brentford, as over 10,000 people pour through the gates.
The Brentford Festival plays host to two live stages (in the Meadow and the Walled Garden) showcasing the best, primarily local bands that many people will have heard at gigs in the area.
Breakfast Show DJ Chris Chilvers says I'm tremendously excited about presenting a show live from what is set to be a fantastic Festival, all about the great and good of West London. A bit of Reading & Leeds on your doorstep? Count me in!
We are excited to offer an exclusive preview of the bands we’ll have performing in a 6 WEEK series we’ll be running on air in the evening shows with HayesFM from late July, right up to show-time on September 5th.
Festival Music head Dave Viney says ‘we are selecting the best local musicians across a broad range of styles to represent the rich diversity of the Brentford community and to suit the moods of the 2 stages – we also hope to stage ‘fringe’ performances of additional local musicians in local venues during the week leading up to the Festival – watch out for announcements on our website during June’
