Oyster Frenzy 2019

Overview

Anytime's a good time for oysters, but there's only one occasion where it's perfectly acceptable to gorge on them to the point of no return: the Oyster Frenzy.

It's not the Oyster Frenzy — the all-you-can-eat oyster festival that was held at Circa, The Prince until it closed last year — but The Botanical's similarly serious annual seafood celebration. Like the former fest, the Frenzy includes bottomless oysters and bottomless booze — and that's all that matters, really.

This year's event is going down in two parts: on Tuesday, July 23 and Tuesday, August 20. Over 4000 oysters will be brought in for the occasion, and they'll be shucked throughout the night as you work your way through them. As mentioned, it's all-you-can-eat — and, to break it up, there will also be other snacks of varying textures going around.

Tickets are pricy at $110, but that does give you access to two hours of unlimited wine and Stone & Wood ales (and a glass of Champagne on arrival). Maybe, try and swing a late start on Wednesday.
