Here are some more great reasons to attend the Havelock Mussel & Seafood Festival

  1. If you’re a local you’ll be helping your community. Since its inception, the Havelock Mussel & Seafood Festival has donated nearly $200,000 to local community groups and associations
  2. If You’re a visitor we’ll show you a great time. There’s something quite unique about Marlburian hospitality. There’s only one thing we love more than having a great time in a region that’s #brillianteveryday, and that’s helping our visitors have an even better time!
  3. It’s bigger and better than ever before. The day itself will include more food and craft stalls than previous years with many of the food delights matched with wine or beer suggestions.
