Oregon’s north coast celebrates food and fun at the 41st Annual Astoria Warrenton Crab, Seafood & Wine Festival on April 28 to 30.

The Astoria Warrenton Crab, Seafood and Wine Festival, sponsored by Fred Meyer, is back this April 28 to 30, at the Clatsop County Fairgrounds near Astoria, Oregon. The Astoria-Warrenton Area Chamber of Commerce coordinates this event which, held annually since 1982, features around 150 vendors of hand-crafted arts, coastal cuisine, Oregon wine, and local brews. The festival is a major fundraiser for not only the AWACC, but dozens of community organizations that participate in the event, as well as hundreds of small businesses from our vendors and performers to hotels, restaurants, and shops in the region.

Enjoy live music on two stages throughout the weekend, featuring performers from a variety of genres to keep your toes tapping. Our Entertainment Sponsor is Pacific Northwest Toyota Dealers Association.

Parking is limited at the event, so we encourage you to take a shuttle from local lodging or park & ride from the Port of Astoria or Warrenton Marina.

Tour Oregon’s renowned wine country with 40 wineries offering a multitude of varietals made in Oregon, primarily using northwest-grown grapes. Local craft breweries will be serving up their favorite foamy brews. And, for those that prefer their spirits distilled, we’ve got you covered, too. Be sure to stop by the Hydration Station, sponsored by NW Natural, for water in between sips of wine, too.

Please visit our website for more event details including event hours, entertainment schedule, shuttle routes and more.

  17. Tamara Sexton on April 12, 2023 at 3:52 pm

    I’ve been going to the Astoria/Warrenton crab and seafood festival for over 20 years 🙂 the last 15 or so with my mother, Lisa ❤️ She was a quadriplegic who didn’t go out much in the last few years of her life, but she always went with me to the festival, as it became our tradition. And, my grampa would still come pick us up as our designated driver and get us home safely to seaside every year. My mom passed away a little over a year ago, so I did not attend last year’s festival. It just felt too soon to be honest, but I would love to go this year, in mom’s honor, and to try to enjoy the festivities and seeing old friends and family I’ve lost touch with over the last year. I would encourage everyone to attend, it’s truly a wonderful assortment of delicious seafood (clown bread? Umm yes please!) and awesome wine from all over our region! And things for kids to do, fun for the whole family ❤️

  18. Sydney on April 12, 2023 at 4:45 pm

    Love Astoria, and it’s my husband’s birthday!

  22. Scott James on April 12, 2023 at 7:04 pm

    Crab cakes, crab chowder, crab ravioli, (my buddy calls them crabioli!), or served with hot butter.

  23. Dotty on April 12, 2023 at 7:04 pm
