Bring your appetite! The 11th annual Montauk Seafood Festival run by the Montauk Friends of Erin and the Kiwanis Club of East Hampton will take place on the downtown green on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. There are over 15 restaurants and vendors participating, serving fish tacos, lobster rolls, tuna sliders, crab cakes, clams, oysters, sushi, hot dogs, burgers, French fries, and more.

There will be games, temporary tattoos, an ocean exploration table, and other activities for kids. Hopefully Forgiven will provide the music on Saturday and the Points East band is on tap on Sunday. Admission is $5, cash only, for adults; kids get in free.
