Celebrate the touch, tastes, and sounds of BC’s best shellfish and seafood products presented by innovative producers and renowned chefs at this stunning oceanside venue at the Filberg Lodge and grounds. Learn how to prepare seafood dishes at fun chef demonstrations and taste the creative and diverse shellfish and seafood items at the tasting booths, while interacting with the world class producers.
