Since 1973, Tyne Valley has been the home of the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship. Oyster shuckers from across the country converge in Western PEI to put their skills to the test on the main stage. It turns out, the musicians aren\u2019t the only rock stars at the festival! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, of course, the biggest star of the festival remains the PEI oyster. Festival-goers can look forward to enjoying all-you-can-eat oysters, fried oysters, and\/or the event\u2019s much-beloved oyster and scallop supper.

The Tyne Valley Oyster Festival is actually TWO big celebrations packed into one 5-day festival \u2013 the Rock the Boat MusicFest and the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship. And really, what better pairing is there than PEI oysters and rock music?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s music line-up includes Canadian legends Randy Bachman and Our Lady Peace along with renowned bands and musicians including Default, The Road Hammers, Arsenal Mills, Hired Guns, and Andrew Waite.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5494,"template":"","event_category":[146,147],"event_tag":[],"class_list":["post-5913","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_category-culinary","event_category-festival"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTyne Valley Oyster Festival - Canada's Food Island<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/canadasfoodisland.ca\/event\/tyne-valley-oyster-festival\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Tyne Valley Oyster Festival\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Since 1973, Tyne Valley has been the home of the Canadian Oyster Shucking Championship.
