Oyster Festivals & Oyster Shucking & Oyster Celebrations

National Oyster Day
The U.S. is not alone in hosting Oyster Festivals!
The U.K. is home to several annual oyster festivals including the Woburn Oyster Festival. Many British breweries produce Oyster Stout, a brew intended to be drunk with oysters that sometimes includes the fish in the brewing process.
Ireland plays host to the world-famous Clarenbridge and Galway Oyster Festivals that take place each September. It’s tradition there to eat live oysters with beer and buttered brown soda bread. The Galway festival is home to the World Oyster Opening Championship, which is considered the premiere oyster shucking competition, although the sport of oyster shucking is staged at other venues around the world.
In Canada, The Tyne Valley Oyster Festival is held in Prince Edward Island, featuring the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship, the PEI Oyster Grading Championship, Miss Oyster Pearl Pageant and lots more.
