This exclusive, highly anticipated, after-hours, annual event is returning by popular demand. Oysterfest first debuted in 2013, and has become one of Reading Terminal Market's signature events, pairing a dozen different varieties of fresh, succulent, locally harvested oysters with a dozen locally sourced microbrews.
This walk-around event showcases freshly shucked East Coast oysters with all the accoutrements, signature New England Clam Chowder prepared by Pearl's Oyster Bar, mini Fried Oyster Poboys prepared by Beck's Cajun Cafe and the perfect craft beer pairings sourced by Molly Malloy's. The net proceeds from this delicious celebration help to support the mission of the nonprofit Reading Terminal Market Corporation.
