Annual Seafood Festival Hosted at Bowen’s Wharf

The 33rd annual Bowen’s Wharf Seafood Festival was held at its historic Newport namesake location on Oct. 19-20. During the two-day event, guests enjoyed fresh seafood straight from local fishers and neighborhood restaurants and vendors, along with craft beer and signature cocktails, set to an eclectic mix of music from local bands. Featured beverage brands included Don Julio Tequila, Bulleit Frontier Whiskey, Fishers Island Lemonade, Dillon’s Small Batch Distillers, Whalers Brewing Company and Moët & Chandon. Billed as one of the “10 Fabulous Fall Festivals on the Coast” by Coastal Living magazine, proceeds from festival bars benefited Oliver Hazard Perry, Rhode Island’s 200-foot official sailing education vessel.
