Hanwell Hootie has been nominated to win the 'Best Metropolitan Festival' in the 2022 UK Festival Awards competition.

The renowned local festival returned in May this year to mark its 10th anniversary. As always, it brought a brilliant free day of music entertainment to Ealing and in a fitting tribute to the festival as it marks its decade of existence, Hanwell Hootie has now been entered as a contestant to win one of the more recent categories added to the annual UK Festival Awards roster.

The prestigious competition, now in its seventeenth year, created the 'Best Metropolitan Festival' to recognise the significant change in the festival landscape which over the last few years has seen city locations play host to an ever increasing number.

"This award is bestowed upon the festival that most convincingly made a city its own," it said of the relatively new category, which last year was won by Tramlines Festival.

Decided by public vote, the Hanwell Hootie organisers now rely upon the many thousands of festival-goers who in the decade of its existence have helped make the local festival such a stalwart event for music lovers.

In a post on its social media page, Hanwell Hootie said: "We have been nominated for the 'best metropolitan festival in the UK' at the UK festival awards!!

"What a way to cap off 10 years of the Hootie if we can win this! We need you to vote for us! Show us some love for 10 years of amazing free music!"

Ealing Nub News will publish a link when voting opens this week. In the meantime, spread the word far and wide, ready for Ealing to throw its weight behind our beloved local festival.
