Weekends away at Lymington Seafood Festival, 14 – 16 July 2023

It’s summer! And seafood lovers from far and wide will be gathering to sample the culinary delights of the sea at the Lymington Seafood Festival 2023. This much-loved annual festival showcases the finest seafood dishes, music, fun and entertainment for all the family, and New Forest Cottages proudly sponsors this lovely event. If you’re pondering a last-minute weekend away, this festival is well-worth adding to your itinerary of fab things to do while you’re here.

Seafood Delicacies Galore

At the heart of the festival are the seafood delicacies. Go to indulge in mouthwatering plates, from freshly shucked oysters to succulent lobster rolls. The festival highlights the diversity of seafood available in the region and beyond, with local and celebrity chefs transforming them into scrumptious plates of deliciousness. Whether you’re a firm fan of traditional fish and chips or keen to try new seafood creations, this boutique festival is the place to come.

Taste the Bounties of the Sea

The festival brings together talented chefs and seafood aficionados for a day of feasting and fun. Set against the picturesque backdrop of sailors on their yachts cruising along Lymington River, boats bobbing in the marinas and toots from the ferry to the Isle of Wight, this year’s festival promises to be the biggest and best yet. In addition to demo tents and stages, there will be around 80 stands selling fishy delights, meat and veggie options, a wide variety of ales, wines, local gins and rums, and fully loaded bars.

Don’t Forget the Music

Beyond the gastronomic delights, plenty of music and entertainment is lined up for a lively backdrop, from the blues to soul, Motown, rock, and pop all weekend. Saturday night is the festival’s tribute night, and you won’t want to miss the fabulous Niqi Brown paying homage to the ‘queen of rock and roll’, Tina Turner!
