2026 Festival

 

Tickets for the 2026 Bluff Oyster & Food Festival, scheduled to be held in Bluff on Saturday 23 May,  are on sale on our Trade Me account (oysterfestival). 

Please note: The 2025 oyster season was challenging and the 2026 season is uncertain. In light of this, we have made the decision to go ahead with the festival even if the season does not open. We therefore make no promises that oysters will be available at the festival and do not offer refunds on tickets.

While the Bluff Oyster is an icon of the festival, the atmosphere on the day and the other sumptuous southern food will more than make up for the temporary absence of our oyster.

 
The Festival is sold out each year as people from all over the country flock to the iconic event which showcases Bluff Oysters, southern seafood, musical entertainment and the unique oyster events.  We do not usually offer gate sales so please pre-purchase your ticket.
