Oyster Shellebration
Join us for Baltimore Fishbowl’s annual Oyster Shellebration, a night made for true oyster lovers. Savor oysters every way—raw, roasted, and in True Chesapeake’s signature oyster stew—alongside crab mac & cheese and a spread of hors d’oeuvres. Your ticket also includes two drink tickets, good for beer, wine, or classic cocktails to pair with your feast.
This isn’t just about great food and good company—it’s about giving back. A portion of every ticket supports Mr. Trash Wheel, the quirky but mighty Baltimore icon that works hard to keep our harbor and the Chesapeake Bay clean.
And because no Shellebration is complete without music, The Lost Pythons—the world’s first rock band dedicated to Mr. Trash Wheel—will take the stage for a live set, performing their signature hits. DJ Mikie Love will also be spinning throughout the night to keep the energy flowing.
