Port Richey Seafood Festival

About This Event

Picture this: You've just touched down on Florida's Nature Coast, and the air is filled with the irresistible aroma of fresh grouper sizzling on grills and blues music drifting across the water. The Cotee River Seafest transforms downtown New Port Richey's waterfront into a three-day paradise where seafood dreams come true. From buttery crab cakes to perfectly seasoned grouper sandwiches, local vendors serve up the Gulf's finest catches while talented musicians fill the Sims Park Amphitheater with soulful blues and folk tunes. What sets this festival apart is its perfect blend of maritime culture and family fun. Kids splash around the super-playground while parents sample craft beer and browse local arts. Take a scenic boat tour aboard the 'Miss Daisy' to work up an appetite, then cheer on rubber duckies in the hilariously fun DuckTona 500 race. With the Cotee River as your backdrop and some of the Southeast's best blues acts as your soundtrack, this festival captures everything magical about Florida's coastal lifestyle.
