Whitianga Scallop Festival returns for 2021

Both organisers and regular festival goers were understanding, albeit disappointed, not to have a festival in 2020 given the risks of Covid-19. It has increased the anticipation and excitement for 2021 where the line-up of food, beverages, celebrity chefs, bands and more, will deliver an exceptional event.

We have no doubt this event will continue to be a sell out and are thrilled to have it back on the Whitianga events calendar.

Nick Reader, Events Coordinator. 

The Whitianga Scallop Festival delivers a jam packed day centred around music, food, wine and entertainment, as well as the opportunity for the local community to benefit. The festival will be held beside the Whitianga Marina. 

Brought to you by Whitianga Scallop Festival Inc, this event is an opportunity for community groups such as Mercury Bay Area School, Scouts and the Lions Club to raise generous funds for their organisations.
