A Maine Summertime Tradition Since 1965

2020 Yarmouth Clam Festival is Canceled

To our guests, volunteers, vendors and neighbors,

Like many of us, the Yarmouth Clam Festival has been closely monitoring the ever evolving Covid-19 situation. After consulting town officials and local supporters, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Clam Festival. Unfortunately, with the current projections and uncertainty, we believe it is in the best interest of the general public, our volunteers and vendors to not hold the Clam Fest. While we are disheartened at the thought of a summer without this traditional event, we feel that moving forward would be a risk to our community and that seeking the monetary support it takes to hold the Festival is not in the best interest of our local business community who have had to deal with so many challenges.

The Clam Festival supports over 30 other local nonprofit groups and we strongly encourage and hope that you will find a way to continue that support over the next few months by reaching out to our wonderful organizations and boosters.

We will be back for Clam Festival 2021, July 16-18!!

Thank you,

Yarmouth Chamber of Commerce
