Win two tickets to Shropshire Oktoberfest

Shropshire’s biggest beer festival is back in the Quarry this October.

Aside from the Lederhosen-clad crowd and occasional Oompah, Shropshire Oktoberfest puts a local twist on the Oktoberfest format, celebrating local brewers, cidermakers, producers, street food, and live bands.

The Shropshire Festivals’ event first began in 2017 and since then, attendance figures have doubled. Their huge marquees and tipis are lined with brewers, cidermakers, distillers and producers from across the Midlands and Welsh border, who serve up their quality products directly to customers.

New to have a stand in 2025 is Bewdley Brewery from the Worcestershire countryside, and Two Farmers, who produce hand-cooked crisps from Herefordshire potatoes.

Friday’s music lineup features Katie Brisbourne & DJ Dan Anderton, Callum & The Pookies, Hot Rox, and SkaBurst. On Saturday, the stage will host Radio Rumours, Midnight Symphony, Vorsprung Durch Oompah, Supersonic – The Sound of Oasis, Dirty Rockin Scoundrels, Groove Dynamite, Lost the Plot, and Ego Friendly.

Festival goers can pick their own music in the silent disco tent and have 5 minutes of fame at Volvo Cars Shrewsbury’s Carpool Karaoke. There’s live comedy in the Live Lounge on Saturday, and live music throughout the event.

Shropshire Oktoberfest is taking place in Shrewsbury’s Quarry on Friday 3 October from 5pm - 10pm and on Saturday 4 October from 12pm - 10pm.
