The venue hosts Father of Loud Day on April 5, a worldwide celebration honouring Jim Marshall, the bloke who founded Marshall Amplification and basically gave rock music its roar. From midday until 8pm.

This isn't some look but don't touch situation. You actually get to test drive the JVM410H, the JCM800, the 1960AV/BV/A and the Studio 900. There's even a special 2026 Lunar New Year Edition on hand, which is pretty hard to find anywhere else. Whether you're a seasoned player or someone who just fancies a go, the space welcomes both beginners and pros equally.

A talk session called Marshall Amplified kicks off at 5pm and runs until 7pm, diving the stories behind world class sounds. You get history, techniques and insider tales from people who actually know their stuff about what makes Marshall amps so iconic.

There's also an exhibition that traces Marshall's journey from its early days to now, and a Vinyl Wall featuring ten albums that define the brand's DNA. 

Even if you've never picked up a guitar, experiencing that legendary volume in its rawest form might just convert you.

Free entry. April 5 from midday to 8pm at Marshall Livehouse.
