LET'S GO TO THE OYSTER FESTIVAL!!!
TIPS TO MAKE YOUR FESTIVAL EXPERIENCE MORE ENJOYABLE....
- There are only a limited number of tables available for you to sit. You may wish to bring your own folding tables, chairs, blankets, etc. for your comfort.
- Handicapped persons may be dropped off at the entrance near the campground office before 10:00 a.m. and someone will be on hand to help you enter the festival. The vehicle must be parked in any of the designated parking areas around the festival grounds. Parking is very limited. we encourage you to ride the FREE trolley provided by the chamber and the Town of Chincoteague. The trolley is handicapped accessible.
- We realize that Maddox Campground allows pets, but for this event PETS WILL NOT be allowed in the festival area.
- To help keep your cost down, eat all you want at the festival, but please do not remove food from the grounds.
- Festival food is served from various booths requiring you to go to each one to get what you want to eat. Souvenir trays will be on sale at the beer tent to assist you in carrying your food or you may bring your own. Soft frinks are provided in the ticket price. Food will be limited per trip, per person, at each booth to allow everyone to get something without having to wait a long time. You may come back later for more.
- Beer will be sold separately. You are permitted to bring in your own coolers.
- Souvenirs will be sold at the festival. Please keep in mind that these items sell out quickly. You might want to purchase them as soon as the gates open. There will be T-shirts, mugs, trays, hats and posters. We accept Visa and Mastercard.
- A Festival Extravaganza Raffle will be offered. Tickets for this raffle will only be available to the festival ticket holders on the day of the festival. Winner will receive T-shirts, tickets, lodging, gift certificates for meals and much more for the following year's festival.
- A "Best Space Award" will be given to the group who decorates their space the best. Sign up at the tree near the front gate.
