MUSIC AND PERFORMANCE

The Stages
 

We have two performance areas. The main Music Stage features bands spanning the range of popular music. Sometimes they're local, sometimes they aren't.
 

The Community Stage at the bandstand showcases local talent in music, dance and sports. The stage is curated by Westside Radio, Hanwell's community radio station, who scour the Ealing area for the very best to present to you.

Take a look below at the full 2026 line-up from both stages to get a taste of what's in store. Next year promises to be no less entertaining, so be sure to save the date and join us for another unmissable day of music, performance and community talent.
