****OCEAN ISLE BEACH, NC (WWAY) — Broiled, fried, and baked mouth watering oysters of every kind will pack plates later this year for the 39th Annual North Carolina Oyster Festival.
Each year, Ocean Isle Beach hosts the two day event. This year it will be on October 19 and 20
****The town is moving the festival to a new location on the island this fall. The reason? The town says construction is being done on the original site.
Thousands of tourists and locals will enjoy the fun in the open lot neighboring the town hall on West 3rd Street.
Admission:
Adults: $5 CASH ONLY / 12 & Under: Free
Parking & Shuttle Information
Look for our amazing volunteer parking crew to direct you in our designated lots. Please note that parking in non-designated lots may cause your vehicle to be towed.
All bus shuttles follow the same route – they are not assigned to a specific lot. This year, a new drop off point by the festival grounds has been determined to assist in pedestrian traffic flow.
