Just a week to go until the Shrewsbury Town Open Day

Countdown to open day

Shrewsbury Town's popular Open Day is just a week away – with a packed schedule of activities planned for fans of all ages.

With a wide range of family-friendly attractions, the event will offer something for everyone - from inflatables and live music to a treasure hunt, climbing wall, and much more.

Supporters will have the opportunity to meet the first-team squad and women’s team, who’ll be getting involved in the day’s events, while fans can also take part in a training session run by academy coaches on the community pitch.

Alternatively, you can watch our under-15s be put through their paces, and catch up with our under-17s, fresh from their Professional Development League Cup triumph, who’ll be in attendance with their medals.

There’s also a chance to grab a bargain at the ever-popular kitman sale, featuring match-worn kit and official training wear.

For those seeking something extra special, tickets are now available for both our Breakfast with the Players and a Q&A session with Head Coach Michael Appleton.
