Kilcunda Lobster Festival

The Kilcunda Lobster Festival is an annual fundraising event held in Kilcunda, a small town located just 12 kilometres east of Phillip Island.

The Kilcunda Lobster Festival is where you can buy, sell or eat lobsters as well as enjoy a number of fun activities.

The festival draws nearly 7000 people each year with thousands of people coming to enjoy all things lobster! One of the most popular attractions at the Lobster Festival is the “Lobster Spinning Wheel” where ticket holders have the opportunity to win a freshly cooked lobster! The Wheel spins every 5 minutes between 10am and 3pm.

The festival is family friendly with an animal nursery, face painting and rides. There are also heaps of market stalls which sell food and drink as well as many other arts, crafts, and home cooked preserves. Bring cash, as EFTPOS is generally not available at the stalls.

There will be live music throughout the day to keep visitors entertained and heaps of hot food and cold drinks to keep you full!

Admission to the festival is free, you just purchase the amount of lobster that you want to eat! So come on down to the Kilcunda Lobster Festival and bring your whole family! It is a summertime event not to be missed!
