Welcome to Hothouse Media
Multi-award-winning specialist media and events company
Hothouse Media was established in 2018 by David Lillywhite and Geoff Love as an independent publishing house focusing on curating content within the classic and prestige car community.
In addition to establishing its own award-winning brands of Magneto, Concours on Savile Row and The Concours Year, Hothouse Media has built a reputation for developing publications, events and content for premium brands within the classic and collector car world.
In 2023, Hothouse Media also acquired the market-leading monthly magazine Octane and the prestigious Historic Motoring Awards.
Brand Consultancy
If you are looking to develop your brand within the classic and collector car market, we can help. We have established a centre of excellence across design, content creation, advertising and sponsorship, and event management. Added to our understanding of the market and the event organisers, personalities, publishers and major influencers, this makes us well placed to help drive your business forward.
Contract Publishing
Whether a one-off publication to support a launch event, an event guide or a monthly magazine with global distribution and in multiple languages, we have the network and experience to take the strain, allowing you to focus on your own areas of expertise.
Content Creation
In an age where so much focus is given to content distribution, SEO and social engagement, it is too easy to forget that quality content remains at the heart of all communication. With access to some of the world's best videographers, story tellers, photographers and journalists, we provide high-quality, original and compelling content in any medium.
Event Management
From concept through to completion, Hothouse Media has the experience to deliver unique events for clients. From a breakfast briefing at the Royal Automobile Club to a major international Concours, Hothouse Media can develop the idea, build the content and stage a seamless event with every aspect covered.
