Bowen's Wharf Seafood Festival
11:00 am | Bowen's Wharf Seafood Festival
Come join us for our last big event of 2022 as we help sponsor the 31st annual Bowen’s Wharf Seafood Festival, on October 15th and 16th, 2022. Named one of the “10 Fabulous Fall Festivals on the Coast,” by Coastal Living Magazine, this event is an open invitation for all to come back to the waterfront after the rush of the summer season! We'll be offering both our new Hard Seltzer, DRIFT Cucumber Lime, as well as our award-winning American Pale Ale, RISE.
Honoring the “Harvest of the Sea,” the Bowen’s Wharf Seafood Festival offers fresh, local seafood. Fish tacos, lobster rolls, stuffies, chowder, fried calamari, clams, oysters, and cold beer accompany continuous live music, and family fun, all beneath the Wharf’s colorful tents. Other neighboring restaurants and fisherman’s associations serve up their most celebrated seafood dishes as well as a few dishes for landlubbers and kids. Cafe-style seating is set up throughout the Wharf and proceeds from festival bars benefit Oliver Hazard Perry, RI’s 200-foot official sailing education vessel.
As you savor some delectable dishes, relax and enjoy the beats from area musicians. Live folk, surf rock, Caribbean and blues music are just a taste of what you’ll hear.
Bring the whole family and join the many locals and devoted visitors over the course of this two-day event.
