St. Augustine Lions Seafood Festival: 2026 dates TBA

Last updated on April 8th, 2025 at 07:32 am

The St. Augustine Lions Seafood Festival, celebrating its 43rd year in 2026, is a cooperative effort of nearly a dozen Lions Clubs, some as far away as Jacksonville, who supply volunteers to participate and raise money for their club’s respective charities.

In addition to seafood and ethnic foods, you’ll find 100 artisan booths in the Arts and Crafts show, a Kids Zone and Pirate Village, as well as an all-American musical line-up ranging across multiple genres, from jazz and country to southern rock.
