Wellfleet OysterFest 2025

Sharing is caring!

The annual Wellfleet OysterFest takes place the weekend after Columbus Day, October 18th-19th   in Wellfleet. This two-day family festival celebrates the town’s famous oysters, clams and shellfishing traditions and brings together locals and visitors alike for a weekend full of hometown flavor and big-time fun!

See all the Cape Cod Fall Festivals 

There is something for everyone at OysterFest: local cuisine, a fine art and craft fair, educational lectures, culinary programs, children’s activities, eco-tours, live music, a road race, and the annual Oyster Shuck-Off competition.
The ‘Fest is made possible through collaboration with the Town of Wellfleet, the support of many generous area businesses and shellfishermen, a wonderful group of volunteers and, most importantly, the weekend’s dedicated attendees.
