Experience the Flavor of the NC Seafood Festival in Morehead City

Just like regions can be known for certain activities and attractions, they can also be known for the festivals and events they host. One such event on the Crystal Coast is the annual North Carolina Seafood Festival in Morehead City. While this event doesn’t take place until October, it is never too early to start planning. To help you have the best experience possible, the team at Spectrum Rental Properties has linked a guide with all the details you need to know.

When and Where Is the Festival?

The “Seafood Fest” is a three-day event that takes place the first weekend of October in Morehead City. The festival is fun and picturesque – it’s located right on the waterfront along Evans Street. Street parking is available; there is additional paid parking and even more paid spots to be found at the NC State Port on Arendell Street.

What Is There to Do and See?

The calendar of events is jam-packed with things to check out during the three days of the festival. Explore the countless booths filled with all kinds of treasures while listening to phenomenal live music. Let the kids ride the rides while you try your hand at winning a prize at the games. Of course, the festival’s highlight is all the seafood to sample. You can also watch world-class chefs show you how to prepare five-star recipes at the cooking exhibitions. For the most up-to-date information on what is taking place, check out the online schedule of events.

Other Important Information

Unlike in previous years, pets are no longer allowed at the festival. If you do have your pup with you, be sure to check our pet policy for information on leaving them unattended. When planning your drive to the festival, remember that most of the waterfront streets will be closed.
