Charlestown Seafood Festival: A Celebration of Rhode Island's Finest Seafood
The Food
The food is the star of the show at the Charlestown Seafood Festival. The Town Dock is bringing back two of last year's favorites: our Rhode Island Style Calamari with hot peppers, garlic, and a side of marinara, and our Buffalo Style Calamari with blue cheese and a side of ranch. New for this year, we'll also be serving up a healthier, non-fried option: our refreshing Calamari Ceviche. We'll also have a few fun non-food souvenir items, because who doesn't love squid swag?
Once you've had your fill of our calamari, there are over 100 vendors serving up other local favorites like lobster rolls, clam cakes, fried seafood platters. You'll also find plenty of non-seafood options, like hamburgers, hot dogs, and pizza.
The Music
There's live music all three days of the festival, with a variety of genres represented. Past performers have included national acts, and every year features regional favorites. This year's entertainment include tributes to AC/DC, Journey, and more. Enjoy the live music while you watch fireworks Saturday night!
The Other Activities
In addition to the food and music, there are also a number of other activities at the Charlestown Seafood Festival. You can take a ride on the Ferris wheel, go rock climbing, or visit the arts and crafts fair. There's also a car show on Sunday afternoon.
