Your Guide: NH Fish & Lobster Festival

The fifth annual NH Fish & Lobster Festival seafood festival will be held at Prescott Park in Portsmouth Saturday.

Admission is free. Food samplings are $4 each.

The event will feature live music, a fish relay race, touch tanks, and more.

Here's more from the festival website:

"Walk the decks of a local fishing boat, taste freshly-landed local seafood prepared by Seacoast chefs, learn to identify and prepare local fish, watch an on-location Seafood Throwdown cook-off competition, investigate the Gulf of Maine ecosystem, sing a song and hear a tale or two.

Otherwise known as the 'Fishtival,' this unique and highly interactive event draws thousands of visitors each year to celebrate 18 miles and 400 years of NH fishing communities and traditions."
