Where is the festival located? Downtown Rockland, Maine, in Harbor Park, which overlooks Penobscot Bay along Maine's Midcoast region.
Why go to the festival? For starters, how does 20,000 pounds of fresh Maine lobster sound?
Add to that...
...what is acclaimed to be the world's largest lobster cooker, great live entertainment, the Big Parade - featuring a variety of bands, floats, marching units, and a newly crowned Sea Goddess and her Sea Princesses...
...various arts and crafts vendors, U.S. Coast Guard Station tours, road races, carnival rides, seafood cooking contests, games and activities for the kids.
And, all of that atop an all you can eat blueberry pancake breakfast!
