ABOUT
Festival policy: NO PETS, NO COOLERS, NO POP-UP TENTS OR CANOPIES, NO UMBRELLAS, NO OVERNIGHT PARKING.
Free admission, free parking, over 125 crafters exhibiting, live continuous entertainment, along with a scrumptious menu of succulent seafood makes this a weekend no one wants to miss.
What sets this seafood festival apart from others is that it runs through a 100% volunteer effort! All preparation, whether it be on the grounds or with the purchasing, cooking or serving of the various menu items is accomplished by volunteers of the community. We do not have any food vendors on site. All booths are run with volunteers: many booths are made up of family members, often times having several generations working along side one another. It is this complete volunteer effort that makes our festival unique. The total commitment of our community and all our volunteers makes the Grant Seafood Festival a time honored tradition unlike any other. We are proud of our community and our festival is a testament to that fact.
All proceeds from the Grant Seafood Festival are put back into the community of Grant. Our projects include the Grant Seafood Festival scholarship fund, Grant Community Library, Grant Historical House and The Grant Community Center so come and enjoy some of the best seafood in Florida and help out the community of Grant at the same time!
FOOD
Fresh seafood is what the Grant Seafood Festival is all about! Each booth is unique and steeped in tradition; many have several generations working side by side using time honored recipes.
We accept most major credit and debit cards and have ATM's on site for your convenience. Red ticket booths are located throughout the main festival grounds; all food and drink items range from 1 - 7 tickets.
