Description

Celebrate the tideflats! We're welcoming the public to our beach to learn about oysters, oyster farming, and life in the Hood Canal, aquatic and other. We call this beach festival the Hama Hama Oyster Rama. It's not the biggest party in the world, but it might be the biggest subtidal one!

The Rama features tours with intertidal ecologists and oyster growers, u-pick oysters and clams, an oyster shucking competition, beer and wine, kid's activities, live music, and various delicious food options. Every year, the Rama benefits local Hood Canal charities.

This will be the first Oyster Rama since 2019 - read below for more information about how the event has changed (or not!).  

Tickets are needed for everybody 16 and up (this means folks 15 and under get in free). Tickets get you into the event and entered into a door prize drawing. 2026 tickets are on sale now!

Admit One!

The Oyster Rama returns after a 6 year hiatus on April 18th & 19th, 2026 

Entrance tickets are required for everyone age 16 and up. Entrance ticket includes 1 door prize ticket and tons of fun! Food and drink will be additional at the event. 

New in 2026: If you would like to harvest oysters and clams at the event, add on a U-Pick Pass that will allow you to harvest 3 dozen oysters and 3 pounds of clams to take home and enjoy. (Plus a bucket to transport your catch, and we'll provide ice!)

Without the U-Pick Pass, you're welcome to explore the beach and attend beach events, but won't be able to harvest anything. 

The Rama is a fundraiser for the Hood Canal Education Foundation, among other local charities.
