While we have enjoyed hosting this event for over 10 years, the Chesapeake Oyster Wine & Beer Festival in DC has been retired. We appreciate your patience, support, and understanding.
A Shuckin’ Good Time

RAW. GRILLED. STEAMED.
Join Us For The 10th Annual Affair! It’s a shuckin’ good time! Enjoy the world’s best SHUCKERS – shucking just for you, smell the FIRE under the grilled oysters, taste the BRINY flavor of the steamed seafood, watch the action while the symphony of tastes plays on right before your eyes. In order to better manage the crowds we’ve broken the show up into TWO BIG SESSIONS. This will cut the audience in half and thus make for a much more fun event. NO lines, NO headaches…….just lots of deliciousness. This event will take place inside AND outside of Dock 5 – Union Market.
