Oswestry Food & Drink Festival

The ever-popular Oswestry Food & Drink Festival, probably the friendliest food festival in Shropshire, is back for its 14th year. This popular free event once again takes place right in the heart of Oswestry town centre on Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 July from 10am till 4pm each day.

The very best specialist food and drink exhibitors from the region will be baking and brewing to bring their delicious wares for your table across the weekend. The streets will be alive with aromas of African, Middle-Eastern, Malaysian, Indian, and Spanish cooking plus we will be showcasing the pick of local produce from sausages to hog roast, and crepes to ciders. For the sweet of tooth, there’s traditional cakes, cupcakes and fancies galore!

There are award-winning ciders and ales from both sides of the border, not to mention cocktails, liqueurs and wines from near and far too. We also have Oswestry’s own gin and real ale producers attending the festival. As well as the fabulous food and drink, there will be live music and other family activities throughout the weekend to entertain, again all for free.

Whilst exploring the festival, look out for the huge variety of independent coffee shops and retailers available throughout Oswestry and perhaps take a festival picnic to Cae Glas Park where you will find the fun packed TNS Fun Day on the 8th. On Sunday, 9 July, there’ll be the everpopular Reggae in the Park for those who just want to chill with their festival goodies to some great music. Both these events are again free to attend and are a great family day out.

The festival is brought to you through Oswestry Town Council. For more information follow the Oswestry Food Festival Facebook page.
