Portarlington Mussel Festival
The Portarlington Mussel Festival is organised by a dedicated committee of volunteers who wish to promote local produce as well as promote Portarlington as an ideal holiday destination. Portarlington is the mussel capital of Victoria, so it was a natural choice to run a mussel festival.
The festival will showcase local produce, including wine, olives, and cheeses. There will be mussels to sample and purchase, prepared in a variety of ways. They will be available to purchase fresh from the Pier, and a charter boat will run trips to the mussel farms. Weather permitting, The sailing ship Enterprize will also be in Port to provide short sailing tours. The Portarlington Dry Boat Artistic Event (Race) will once again be held down by the Pier.
This year the South American band, "Inka Marka" will entertain visitors outdoors, while other entertainment will be held inside the community hall..
The Portarlington Bowling Club, Local Artists, Country Fire Authority, Scout Groups will be holding various activities. This is a family focus festival, therefore there will be activities for all the family. These include:
* Art show
* Model boat display
* Information on how to prepare and cook your mussels
* Open-air market
* Vintage car display
* Fashion parade hosted by a local boutique
* Animal farm
* Model Boats
* Quilt Display
