Arcata’s Oyster Festival is the prized pearl of summer festivals, bringing thousands of friends and families to the Arcata Plaza to enjoy our finest local oysters and food, craft brews, wine, music, theater, art, and dance in a safe and healthy environment.
Please join Arcata Main Street, along with dozens of community partners, chefs, local businesses, and non-profits to celebrate this quarter century milestone!
We’ll have your favorite Oyster Fest traditions like the Best Oyster, the Oyster Calling Contest, the Shuck & Swallow Contest, a Raffle, the decorated storefront Window Contest, a kids’ area, Aqua Alley, the Farmer’s Market, Arcata Playhouse entertainment, and much more, plus an entire month of activities leading up to Oyster Fest that will expand your understanding and appreciation of our local Humboldt Bay aquaculture industry, economy, and culture.
