The Tofino Oyster Festival is the reincarnation of the extremely popular Clayoquot Oyster Festival that began in 1997 and ran for over 20 years. A favourite with locals and visitors alike, the festival celebrates the abundance and beauty of the sea in and around Tofino. Milestone events like these always bring a vibrant energy to what might otherwise be a gloomy November weekend.

The Festival hosts three signature events. Join us!

Mermaid’s Ball (a costume-encouraged event!) – Friday, Nov.24

Oyster Gala – Saturday, Nov. 25

Shuckers Showdown, an all-ages event – Sunday, Nov.26
