Hang on, why should we volunteer if it’s a privately funded event?

Our festival is privately funded but without community support, we just wouldn’t last. We’ve been transparent from day one - the festival can only exist with private funding and the support of local volunteers.

We also want to give back to the community. Our festival not only helps to boost the local economy, we also give back to the community through local projects and working with local charities, such as Lingen Davies Cancer Fund, The Harry Johnson Trust and Self Help Africa.

The local, family business - Shropshire Festivals! We’re a small, independent business with a mission to create fun festivals for all! We are the team behind Shropshire Oktoberfest, Shropshire Tasty Trail, Shropshire Kids Festival and Shropshire Business Festival. At the helm is Director of Fun - Beth Heath, and Engineer of Extraordinary Things - Sid Heath.
