About this Event
Celebrate South Florida’s most iconic seafood delicacy — the Stone Crab — at one of Downtown Fort Lauderdale’s largest and most anticipated annual events. This family-friendly festival draws 8,000 to 10,000 attendees each year and showcases a mouthwatering array of fresh seafood, local vendors, and lively entertainment, including the fan-favorite Hermit Crab Races.
For guests 21 and over, a VIP Tasting Experience will offer exclusive access to a private area featuring curated bites and beverages from local restaurants and craft drink vendors — available for the duration of the event, while supplies last. Sponsors will be announced in late October.
Admission is free and open to the public! Each seafood vendor will offer a featured $5 menu item, making it easy to sample your way through the best of what South Florida has to offer.
Sponsors include: Vinny’s Stone Crabs & Seafood, Morningstar Storage – Fat Village, GoRiverwalk Magazine and S. Mark Graphics
