The Ogretones are known as the UK's number one Shrek tribute band, turning the beloved movie soundtracks into a full-blown live show. The band itself is quite the spectacle, operating as a nine-piece live ensemble. They feature multiple vocalists and a complete brass section, which certainly adds punch and energy to the performance. Naturally, the show features characters like Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey & Friends, making it a highly visual experience as well as a musical one.
The entire setlist is dedicated to the iconic hits found across the Shrek movie soundtracks. This means you can expect a wide-ranging repertoire, covering everything from high-energy pop to classic rock. We're talking about songs originally performed by artists like Smash Mouth, Counting Crows, Ricky Martin, The Proclaimers, Bonnie Tyler, David Bowie, and even Led Zeppelin and Buzzcocks. It sounds like a genuinely fun mix of nostalgia and high-energy covers, leaning heavily into the theatrical side of things while delivering serious musical chops.
If you are planning on grabbing tickets, be aware of the entry requirements and pricing. While some sources still list prices as 'TBC' (To Be Confirmed), tickets have been quoted around the £23.28 mark. Crucially, this event has a strict age restriction: it is strictly 14+. If you are under 16, you must be accompanied by an adult to gain entry. Given the late finish time and the nature of the venue, it seems geared toward a young adult and adult audience looking for a unique night out in Brighton.
