SPOT PRAWN FESTIVAL 2025
There is plenty to love about the Spot Prawn Festival. You can wander the wharf while listening to live music, watch their live cooking demos from some of B.C.’s top chefs, and of course delight in a Spot Prawn Bisque, or even their Spot Prawn Brunch.
There will also be spot prawns available for purchase from local fishers, so you know your seafood is sustainably caught.

You can enjoy the Festival in three ways:
- FREE: you get access to the docks, viewing cooking demos, and more.
- $10 (plus tax) ticket: includes a 10 oz. bowl of Spot Prawn Bisque. It can also be packed to go if you’d like!
- $79 (plus tax) ticket: includes a Spot Prawn Brunch. With a grazing-style tasting menu that features 6 different spot prawn dishes (19 years+ only).
The Festival is, of course, free to enjoy for everybody. But, to try the food prepared by their talented chefs, a ticket is required. The purpose of The Spot Prawn Festival is to fundraise for The Chefs’ Table Society so it “can continue to provide education, mentorship and sustainability initiatives across the province.” The ticket costs go toward their scholarships and operating costs, so we can continue to enjoy the Chefs’ Table Society’s services for many years to come.
