The competition heats up tonight as fishers put their skills to the test in the Great Lobsterman Challenge, one of the signature events of this year's Lobster Festival.
Past champions, returning competitors, and first-time challengers will go head-to-head in a series of events inspired by the skills used every day on the water. With a five-time champion, a two-time champion, the reigning champion, and other great competitors all competing for the title, it's anyone's guess who will come out on top.
Sandy Wickens Memorial Arena
Doors Open: 5:30 PM
Competition Begins: 6:30 PM
The Great Lobsterman Challenge is just one of many events happening throughout Lobster Festival. From markets and workshops to live entertainment, family activities, the Beat the Tide Tinkers Run, Lucy's Trivia Trail, the Lobster Capital Quest, and more, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Come out, cheer on the competitors, and help us celebrate the industry, people, and traditions that have earned the Municipality of Barrington its title as the Lobster Capital of Canada.
