The Astoria Warrenton Crab and Wine Festival is held annually on the last weekend of April, at the Clatsop County Fair & Expo Center. The Astoria-Warrenton Area Chamber of Commerce (AWACC) coordinates this event which, held annually since 1982, features around 150 vendors of hand-crafted arts, coastal cuisine, Oregon wine and local brews. The festival is a major fundraiser for not only the AWACC, but dozens of community organizations that participate in the event. The festival also draws traffic to hundreds of small businesses, from Crab Fest vendors and performers to local hotels, restaurants and shops in the surrounding region.
Eat! Enjoy a selection of northwest flavors from a dozen food vendors. Food options are primarily crab and seafood, but also include other cuisines and vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and kid friendly options. Our vendors bring a variety of flavors to the festival.
Drink! Tour Oregon’s renowned wine country with 40 wineries offering a multitude of varietals made in Oregon, primarily using northwest-grown grapes. Local craft breweries will be serving up their favorite foamy brews. And, for those that prefer their spirits distilled, we’ve got you covered, too. Be sure to stop by the Hydration Station, sponsored by NW Natural, for water in between sips of wine, too.
Check out the award-winning wines from our festival’s wine competition in March 2025!
The 2026 wine competition results will be announced before the festival.
Be Merry! With continuous musical performances on two stages, you’ll enjoy a rich mix of styles from blues and folk to rock and high-energy tribute bands. Saturday’s lineup features tributes like Roll On Alabama, Secondhand Seattle and Budokan Cheap Trick tributes that bring classic hits to life. There’s a performance for every taste and tempo! Stroll through the aisles of more than 100 booths featuring local artists, northwest-made products and more.
