EVENT ALERT: 52nd Maryland Seafood Festival NEXT WEEKEND 🦀

Published: Thu, 08/29/19

Ah September! Labor Day rolls around and the official end of summer kicks in. And that ALWAYS means that it is time for the Maryland Seafood Festival at Sandy Point State Park.

This year they are celebrating their 52nd year and it will be a weekend full of delicious seafood dishes, interactive cooking demonstrations, exciting competitions, kids activities and more!

Tickets are on sale right now and you will want to get them in advance. This event is always one of the most popular ones and there are always lines at the gate to get tickets. Buy now, in advance, and waltz right on in--they do allow waltzing...I checked.

Anyhow, save September 7th or 8th on your calendar to experience the fest--heck save both dates, it is THAT much fun!

I will see you there!

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Aside from terrific seafood and perhaps the most beautiful scenic place in Maryland....

Live Music All Day
Crab Soup Cook-off
Chef Demonstrations
Contests
Chesapeake Arts Village
Beer and Oyster Tastings

So Much More

The festival gates open at 10am on both days and they close at 9pm on Saturday and 7pm on Sunday!

Parking: You can park your car at AACC ($5 to charity) and take the FREE shuttle to the fest (this is the best way) as they run continuously. Or you can park at Sandy Point Park, but there is a $10 parking fee PLUS the admission to the park of $20. More info available here.
