Shropshire's biggest party returns to Shrewsbury on Friday 3rd & Saturday 4th October.

Get your lederhosen ready for our huge beer tent in Shrewsbury Quarry.

There’s no mainstream rubbish at this sell-out festival. Instead, our bars are manned by local brewers, cidermakers, distillers, winemakers, and producers who proudly serve you their expertly crafted drinks. 


We’ll fill your bellies with incredible street food, get you laughing in the comedy tent, dancing in the silent disco, and singing along to all the classics in front of the live music stage.

Shropshire Oktoberfest is brought to you by Shropshire Festivals, the team behind Shrewsbury Food Festival.

ALE, LAGER, CIDER, COCKTAILS, GIN, WINE & FIZZ

Shropshire Oktoberfest is all about championing independent drinks producers from our region - with a couple of German beers thrown in for good measure! 


Whether it’s beer brewed a few miles up the road, real Herefordshire perry, locally handcrafted gin, or wine from grapes grown in the town, expect over 150 quality tipples to choose from.

Carpool
KarAoke

Thanks to the brilliant team at Volvo Cars Shrewsbury, you can get dressed up and have five minutes of fame in their Carpool Karaoke tent.

Silent
disco

In our silent disco tent we turn the lights down low and put you in charge of the music. Sing at the top of your lungs and dance your socks off.
