Chincoteague Oyster Festival
Think of it this way, Road Trips Foodies, if you offered “all you can eat oysters”, wouldn’t you expect the tickets to sell quickly? That’s what’s gonna happen again at the Chincoteague Oyster Festival, set for October 9, 2010, on Chincoteague Island, Virginia.
Remember: it’s all you can eat — oysters on the half shell, steamed, single fried, fritters; clam chowder, clam fritters, steamed crabs, cole slaw, potato salad, hush puppies, hot dogs and Pepsi.
This is the 38th annual fest, so they know what’s gonna happen. If you’re traveling that direction, get your tickets online before you head out.
Sponsored by the Chincoteague Chamber of Commerce, the oyster festival takes place at the Maddox Family Campground, 6742 Maddox Boulevard, Chincoteague, Virginia. Hours are noon to 4 p.m.
