About The Venue

Quarry Park is Shrewsbury’s main park. Shrewsbury is the county town of Shropshire, an area of the UK. The park is the location of the Dingle, a floral work of art created by repurposing an old stone quarry. During the summer, the sunken garden changes into a living masterpiece.

The Shrewsbury Oktoberfest and LivingWell are also held at this locale.

Quarry Park is composed of 29 acres of parkland repurposed from an old quarry and the land surrounding it. It was created in 1719 with funding from the Shropshire Horticultural Society. Since its repurposing and creation, the park has been frequented by many tourists. Quarry Park is also popular as an event location as there are plentiful parking spaces around the area.  The venue is furthermore managed by experienced staff who can help organizers during events.
