About
The Auckland Seafood Festival was created six years ago to celebrate Auckland’s Anniversary weekend and New Zealand seafood. The event has always been a community project with all proceeds going to charity. During the life span of the festival, over $340,000 has been donated.
Since 2006, the festival has grown considerably with over 22,400 people attending last year. This year we are hoping to make that number even bigger. This three-day extravaganza of New Zealand’s best seafood, musical acts, live demonstrations and competitions is set in the BIG little city, right in the heart of Auckland’s fishing industry. The various venues around Auckland’s waterfront that have housed the festival have always provided a spectacular setting for a wonderful day of fun, sun and seafood. This year’s venue, the Wynyard Quarter will be no different. We look forward to celebrating with you.
Programme
The Auckland Seafood Festival is the place to be this Anniversary Weekend. This year, the festival is bigger and better than ever.

Between the musical acts, demonstrations and amazing seafood, last year’s festival was a really great way to spend Auckland’s Anniversary Weekend. We had over 22,400 visitors over the three-day event, over 90 dishes ranging from crayfish, paua, mussel, oysters, scampi, whelks and many different varieties of fish, plus some outstanding musical acts and live demonstrations. While we were at it, we managed to snap a few pictures, have a look!
