8 Attend a fall festival
Come autumn, the party is just getting started here-Cape Cod is Festival Central on weekends. Like
yard sales, they’re everywhere. Celebrate oysters,
clams, and shell-昀椀shing traditions at the Well昀氀eet
OysterFest. The two-day October event includes
arts and crafts, live music, kids’ activities, a road race,
and the Oyster Shuck Off, America’s biggest oyster
shucking competition.
The Harwich Cranberry Arts & Music Festival in
September is the town’s biggest event, featuring 150+
juried craft makers, food trucks, the CranJam (live
music), and dancing.
Calling all beer lovers: Come September, the Cape
Cod Brew Fest celebrates American craft brewers, with
50+ breweries and over 150 styles of beer. Food and
live music round out the fun at this rollicking one-day
event, held at Falmouth’s Cape Cod Fairgrounds.
