The fifth annual Love City Seafood Festival is back, bigger and better, now spanning two days to meet growing demand. Set for Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. at the St. John Tennis Courts Parking Lot, this event promises fresh seafood, vibrant entertainment and a true taste of island culture.
On Saturday, the festival kicks off with DJ Lady Mix setting the vibe from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., followed by a special 4 p.m. Tramp led by Pan in Motion. The energy keeps building into the evening, with the RVP Band taking the stage from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Sunday brings the sounds of reggae with the Reggae Dynasty Band performing from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., making it a perfect way to close out the festival.
Seafood lovers can look forward to an incredible selection of dishes, with vendors serving up everything from local pot fish and lobster to shrimp, salmon soups and more — all prepared fresh on-site. In addition to seafood, vendors will feature local clothing, cosmetics and other island-inspired products.
Families are welcome, with kid-friendly activities including face painting and performances by moko jumbies adding to the festive atmosphere.
“Because of high demand at past events, this year’s festival has been extended into two days,” said Roy Reid, event coordinator. “Tourists and visitors can look forward to this annual seafood festival exclusively for St. John. That’s why it’s called Love City Seafood Festival.”
Presented by Twin Dread Promotions, the event is free to attend and open to all.
