The BC Shellfish Growers Association is proud to present the Gala Dinner, which will take place at the Mount Washington Alpine Resort on Saturday, June 24, as part of the BC Seafood Festival. This signature event will feature over 12 top British Columbia chefs, who will offer a variety of seafood tasting stations featuring local delicacies such as BC Spot Prawns, BC Salmon, Sablefish, Ling Cod, Steelhead, Scallops, Pacific Halibut, Crab, Geoduck, and more.
Guests will be treated to a complimentary welcome cocktail courtesy of Wayward Distillery, and live music by Paul Keim solo guitar before dinner, followed by the Drummund Trio performing light jazz during dinner. This premier event is the perfect setting to mingle with the chefs, seafood producers, and other guests while enjoying exquisitely prepared seafood.
The BC Shellfish Growers Association has proudly presented the Gala Dinner since the festival’s inception in 2006, and this event always sells out. The dress code for the Gala Dinner is semi-formal/business.
Purchase 2-6 Gala Dinner tickets and receive a 50% off code for the Shucked! Oyster Bar Happy Hour, which takes place before the Gala Dinner. Gala Dinner tickets are $155 each (plus GST & fees), and purchasing a table of 8 will save you money, with a cost of $1200 (or $150 per person, plus GST & fees).
