The 38th annual Astoria Warrenton Crab, Seafood and Wine Festival will be staged April 24-26 for those who enjoy great coastal cuisine, arts and crafts, wine tasting and more.

Astoria and Warrenton celebrate the bounty of the Pacific Ocean with this award-winning event that features the authentic flavors of Oregon’s North Coast, as well as trend-setting artisan producers and Oregon-based wineries. About 14,000 to 16,000 people and 175 vendors attend the event each year.

Each year, the wineries participating in the Astoria Warrenton Crab, Seafood and Wine Festival have the opportunity to enter their wines in the festival’s wine competition. The winning red and white wines are awarded the titles of “Best of Show.” Additional top scoring wines are awarded gold, silver and bronze medals.

It is held on the last full weekend of April every year and staged by the Astoria-Warrenton Area Chamber of Commerce at the Clatsop County Fair & Expo Center on Highway 202 about 4 miles from the junction of Highway 101 in Astoria.
