IMPORTANT UPDATE: NC OYSTER FESTIVAL CLOSING EARLY TODAY
Due to a Gale Warning and high wind conditions in our area, we have made the difficult decision to close the NC Oyster Festival early today, Saturday, October 17, for the safety of our guests, vendors, volunteers, and staff.
The good news is that we plan to resume the festivities tomorrow morning, Sunday, October 18!
We know many of you were looking forward to spending the day with us, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding. The safety of everyone attending and participating in the festival will always be our top priority.
Please help us spread the word to anyone planning to attend today, and stay tuned to our pages for any additional updates.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back tomorrow!
