OsFest Break for the Border

last updated: Thu 8th Sep 2016

OsFest - Break for the Border (previously OsFest) is an annual music festival started in 2010, taking place at Oswestry Showground, in Shropshire.

The 37 acre Showground site is transformed into a Festival Village with several camping areas, a food village, VIP hospitality suites, a main stage, funfair, music workshops and many other attractions aimed at a wide and varied audience.

In 2015 organisers issued a statement, "Unfortunately though, due to many factors in 2014 - being let down by key artists, hurricanes and a lack of audience support, among others - we are sad to say that OsFest is not going to be viable for 2015 and we will therefore be taking a break for the foreseeable future."
