Oyster opening, eating and blindfolded competitions provide great entertainment for the crowd throughout the day.
This year's festival, will be at the Bluff Oyster & Food Festival site in Lee St, on May 24 and will feature the same successful recipe.
Plentiful seafood with the star of the show — the Bluff oyster — as well as other food selections, a wide choice of beverages, a full programme of musical entertainment and the unique oyster opening and eating events.
The 2024 festival, which was the first for three years after various disruptions, was a great success and this year's event looks to be on track to repeat that success.
