oyster festival
Bivalve harvest party
An oyster festival is a community event celebrating oysters, typically held in coastal regions during harvest season.
Festivities center on eating oysters—raw, roasted, fried, or in stews—alongside shucking contests, live music, and local vendors.
The annual oyster festival draws thousands to the waterfront each October.
