Join growers, chefs, and shuckers to celebrate the Oyster from May 2 to 4, with Rock Oyster Week from April 26.A true symphony of merroir, season, cultivation and exceptional produce, the Narooma Oyster Festival brings a feast to the shores of Wagonga Inlet - the heart of Rock Oyster Country. It's also the home of the Australian Oyster Shucking Championships and Australia's Biggest Oyster Competition!
The Festival begins on Friday, May 2. From 4pm, gather around the MG Stage at Quota Park to feast at the oyster and liquor bars, with gourmet plates and snacks from the market. Bask in live music with Gang of Brothers, Bek Jensen and more, watch the Bioluminescence Project along the boulevard and get ready for the Whale Coast Realty Fireworks show over the Inlet. Picnic blankets welcome!
Saturday, the main event, draws everyone back to Quota Park with buses from Batemans Bay, Bermagui & Merimbula. Farmers bring their best harvest straight from the estuaries to Oyster Farmers Alley and Australia’s Biggest Oyster competition - and their best knives for the Australian Oyster Shucking Championships. Chefs elevate the finest local produce, turning the foreshore into a feast for the senses. Enjoy cosmopolitan and Indigenous cooking demonstrations, markets, more live music, and roving performers - all accompanied by a selection of 25+ celebrated winemakers, brewers, and distillers.
Heard of merroir? Discover it with all your senses in the Ultimate Oyster Experience, a masterclass like no other. For even more indulgence, book a spot in the Rock Oyster Lounge, board a Champagne Oyster Cruise or settle in for a Gin, Bubbles or Beer Masterclass. Watch cooking demonstrations with host Courtney Roulston (Farm to Fork), chef Nornie Beru (Mabo Mabo), joined by guest chefs Analiese Gregory (SBS Girl's Guide to Hunting Fishing and Wild Cooking) from Tasmania, Al Brown (Depot Eatery) from New Zealand, Narooma’s own Al Newbold (Mr Bold) and more to come.
