Frequently Asked Questions
Our festival is growing more and more each year and it can get crowded very quick. We find it to be much less stressful on our volunteers, guests, and the dogs themselves if they just sit this one out. To ensure everyone’s safety and comfort, we kindly request that you leave your furry companions at home this time. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in making this event enjoyable for all.
Since our festival is made possible by volunteers we want to make it as easy as possible for them to efficiently serve you. We have incorporated a ticket system. You will purchase tickets and head to the beer or oyster booth where they will happily take your tickets in exchange for beer or oysters.
No worries about forgetting cash. We have ATMs available for your convenience in multiple locations!
We accept credit cards for beer tickets, shirts, and at the gate. Most of the arts and crafts vendors take credit cards. The food vendors only accept cash.
Of course! You can save money and prevent waste each year by saving and reusing your iconic Oysterfest mugs.
Please see a volunteer or contact us to find any lost items.
