Join a summer celebration at the award-winning gastropub

Celebrate the fourth anniversary of the Victoria Oxshott with Vicfest, the Big Birthday Bash on Sunday, 24th August.

Running from 12pm to 10pm, the festival marks the pub’s fourth year with a packed programme of live entertainment, award-winning food, and summer festivities, all with free entry.

Following the huge success of May’s inaugural Vicfest, which drew buzzing crowds to the award-winning pub, this August’s event promises to be even bigger and better.

Set in one of Surrey’s most impressive pub gardens, Vicfest offers guests stylish outdoor dining and vibrant entertainment throughout the day, building on the pub’s popular weekly live music evenings.

Festival highlights include:

Festival food: Whole hog roast cooked over open flame, freshly made churros by Executive Chef Daniel Lee, whose ingredient-led cooking has earned three AA Rosettes, plus woodfired pizzas and rotisserie chicken from Cluck & Crust.

Summer drinks: Frozen margarita van, seasonal spritzes, sparkling wine and rosé, premium cocktails, local beers, and refreshing ciders.

Live music & DJs: Standout musicians Ben Eaton and Louis Donan, plus an evening set by acclaimed DJ Roya and guest.

Family fun: Lawn games, homemade soft serve ice cream with choice of toppings and sauces, and a welcoming atmosphere for all ages and four-legged friends.

Bring your friends, family, and four-legged companions to enjoy a relaxed, music-filled day in one of Surrey’s most beautifully landscaped pub gardens. Celebrating culinary excellence, refreshing summer drinks, and vibrant community spirit, Vicfest promises relaxed elegance and standout entertainment, making it the ideal August bank holiday experience.
