Florida Seafood Festival facts for kids
The Florida Seafood Festival is an annual public event held in Apalachicola, Florida on the first weekend of November. The oldest seafood festival in the state, the Florida Seafood Festival was established in 1964. Each year the festival features a parade, carnival, blue crab races, oyster eating and shucking contests, a 5 kilometres (3.107 mi) road race, a country music concert, arts and craft booths, and plenty of fresh local seafood. The local seafood is prepared by local non-profit groups. The 2010 Florida Seafood Festival Oyster Shucking Champion Mike Martin won the 2010 National Oyster Shucking Championship.
There was no Florida Seafood Festival in 2020.
