This year, the festival’s signature Saturday celebration moves to the historic Coastal Discovery Museum, a breathtaking setting where live oaks, open lawns, and deep Lowcountry heritage set the stage for an unforgettable afternoon. From 12:00–5:00 PM, wander the grounds at your own pace and indulge as you go, sampling dishes from food trucks, top local restaurants, regional favorites, and artisan vendors. All food and beverage offerings are à la carte, so you can explore freely and craft your perfect tasting experience.

The day also includes:

• Live Music

• Celebrity Chef Stages

• Full Bars throughout the festival grounds

• A Savannah-Hilton Head International Airport Coastal Pour experience (separate ticket required)

• A lively Kids Zone for family fun

Gate entry is just $20, and all ticket sales, beverage sales, and Beverage Tasting Tent (+21 Older) proceeds benefit the David M. Carmines Memorial Fund, supporting local charities across our community. Rain or shine, we will dine! Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival encourages all guests to consume responsibly. Please note: The Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival is a cashless event—making it quicker and easier for you to enjoy more seafood, more sips, and more fun! We’ll gladly accept all major credit/debit cards and mobile payments at the festival.
