Bluff Oyster And Food Festival. Held on the third saturday in may each year it is the biggest day of the year in the town with food galore headlined by the iconic bluff oyster, other succulent southern seafood plus. I am planning a 2 weeks south island trip to see southern lights and i am wondering if it is worth staying in bluff to attend the bluff oyster festival on 26th may.

Crowds brave the cold to ensure their early. The 2025 event will be held on 24 may 2025.
