Alberta Oyster Festival coming to Calgary's Rodney’s Oyster House
The Alberta Oyster Festival is returning this month!
Coming to Rodney’s Oyster House in Calgary on Sunday, June 25, this event will have a DJ, drink booths, a silent auction, and of course, tons of oysters. Tickets are $35 and include two drink tickets.
There is also a very exciting and impressive shucking competition happening, with the grand prize champ winning a trip to the Tyne Valley Oyster Festival in Prince Edward Island to compete in the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship.
There is even an amateur competition to learn the ropes of a shuck-off if you want to sign up!
This is the fourth annual Alberta Oyster Festival.
“We couldn’t be more excited to host the Alberta Oyster Festival for another year,” said Brad Conrad, the general manager of Rodney’s Oyster House, in a press release.
“It is an incredible opportunity for Calgarians to come together and enjoy amazing food and drinks, all while making a difference supporting a charitable local organization.”
The entire event is also in support of the Mustard Seed.
