More Info
What is Shropshire Oktoberfest?

Shropshire Oktoberfest is a two-day event in Shrewsbury Quarry, where the team bring together over 180 beers, lagers, and ciders, as well as gin, cocktails, and fizz. There is tasty street food to accompany your drinks, and for entertainment, a huge live music stage with incredible local bands, a silent disco, Carpool Karaoke, and a Comedy Club on Saturday.

So basically, it's one big party!

Is Shropshire Oktoberfest dog-friendly?

No, sorry. Shropshire Oktoberfest has loud music, and people consuming alcohol on site, it just wouldn't be safe for your four-legged friends. Only assistance dogs will be allowed into the festival.

Is there bag restrictions in place?

Your safety is the top priority so Shropshire Festivals have put in place necessary measures to maximise public safety. All festival go-ers will be searched on arrival, so please be patient if the queue is a little longer than normal. 

If you wish to bring a bag to Shropshire Oktoberfest, please ensure it is no bigger than an A4 piece of paper, 8.27inches x 11.69inches.
