39th annual Fulton Oysterfest

From 39th annual Fulton Oysterfest Website:

Each year the Fulton Volunteer Fire Department sponsors Oysterfest, a salute to the tasty bi-valve found in our local waters. Oysterfest features carnival rides, games, food, an oyster eating contest, live music, unique vendor booths and most of all FUN!

The Fulton Volunteer Fire Department is pulling out all the stops in preparation for the Annual Fulton Oysterfest. The 2018 festival is scheduled for Wednesday, February 28th through Sunday, March 4th, 2018 on the waterfront in Fulton, Texas. With over 36,000 visitors in 2011, it was the most successful festival in Oysterfest history.

Oysterfest officials have been working with seafood sources along the Texas Gulf Coast to locate the freshest oysters and other seafood for the event as well as the most popular entertainment. Each years celebration is a labor of love for the Fulton Volunteer Fire Dept. Over the past 37 years, they have used funds from the festival to purchase equipment and saved to build a new fire station. The New Fire Station is Now Complete. Money raised now goes towards Equipment, Training, & Maintenance. Oysterfest proceeds are the major source of funding for life-saving and fire fighting equipment in the community.

Come join us in Fulton for a fun-filled weekend!!
