The Gramophone - Hayes

Really Local Group™’s latest project has received a £1.2m funding boost from the Mayor of London’s Good Growth Fund.

Known as The Gramophone, the venue will sit within The Old Vinyl Factory development, and it will be a new world-class cultural and creative hub for Hayes. The venue will feature a cinema, live music venue and interactive exhibitions celebrating the site’s history as a key part of the global industrial and music trade.

Plans for the Gramophone include:

  • A 3-screen cinema
  • Community spaces
  • Interactive heritage exhibition
  • Welcoming café/bar

The Gramophone building will retain sections of the former pressing plant, an iconic industrial component of the global music trade, where grooves were stamped onto heated vinyl, producing millions of records that shipped around the world with the famous words printed on the sleeve: ‘EMI Records, Hayes, Middlesex, England’.
