A GLOBAL COMMUNITY FOR OYSTER PRODUCERS, CONSUMERS, DISTRIBUTORS, CHEFS, SCIENTISTS, THOUGHT-LEADERS & RESTORATIONISTS.

Discover, enjoy and share oyster-related events, content, products, services, experiences and destinations.

Our mission is to showcase and celebrate the people, places & processes that deliver oysters to consumers everywhere. In doing so we strive to protect, preserve and restore oyster habitat and be a "rising tide” for all of those who enjoy, produce, distribute or serve oysters. Be a part of the never-ending exploration of the oyster's role in history, culture, cuisine, economies and eco-systems, everywhere!

An Oyster Week is a curated collection of oyster-centric events, where something for every budget, location and personality type is available.

Oyster Week began as an idea in NYC in 2011. Our idea became a reality, when we produced our first New York Oyster Week in September of 2012. Since then we’ve grown into a community of oyster producers, distributors, restaurants, shuckers and consumers that we call The OysterHood, which was launched in 2014. In 2017 we added Miami Oyster Week to our group of event series. And, in 2022, we are Presenting the first Charleston Oyster Week. And, of course - we are working on several other markets in the US, Canada and Europe.

We’ve developed, produced and co-produced dozens of other outstanding oyster-centric events including Empire Oyster - A New York Shellfish Showcase, International Oyster Day, Jingle Shells, Lobstafari, St. Oyster’s Weekend, OystoberFest, Oyster Social, Merroir + Terroir, The Night Aquatic and many more. Philadelphia Oyster Week will allow us to present a new concept we’ll call Fishtown Oyster Revival.
