Vapefest will take place over the weekend of the 4th and 5th of August. It’s free to get in and there’s a modest charge for campers if they wish to remain on site – just make sure you’ve read the instructions.
Campers can start arriving after 4pm on the Friday, and the gates open to day-trippers on Saturday and Sunday at 10am. Vendors will close their stalls at 6pm, but there will still be things taking place to enjoy into the evening. Everybody including campers must be off site by 8pm on Sunday.
The Greenhous West Mid Showground is easy to get to, the Agricultural Showground is signposted as you approach Shrewsbury and locatable on satnavs by punching in SY1 2PF. Parking, like general admission, remains free.
The venue sees over 20,000 vapers turn up year on year to enjoy the two bars, catering, entertainment and paw over everything from cheap drip tips to expensive mods. If your batteries die just before you get the chance to vape that new juice you’ve purchased, fully charged ones are on sale too.
On that note, if you are planning to make a purchase then factor in that vendors you want to buy from might not have the facility to accept your card. Fear not, cashpoints are not far away. Bear in mind - there are new shiny things coming from Hellfire and Eden Mods.

If this wasn’t enough reason to go, Saturday’s raffle is the stuff of legend. Last year’s prizes were simply amazing - as Jim Bowen used to say: “Just look at what you could’ve won.”
