Riverwalk Fort Lauderdale is excited to announce the 6th Annual Stone Crab & Seafood Festival presented by Grille 401 on Saturday, January 14, 2017, in the middle of the highly anticipated annual Florida Stone Crab Season. The event will take place at Esplanade Park, in the heart of Downtown Fort Lauderdale, from 11am  to 5pm.  This festival is a free celebration of the local South Florida Seafood Industry and highlights some of Fort Lauderdale’s favorite seafood restaurants as they serve up fresh stone crab claws and an array of select seafood dishes starting at only $5.  Seafood lovers of all ages are welcome to come out rain or shine and enjoy a day of great food, cold beers (and more), live music, games (including the crowd-favorite hermit crab races), prizes and more!
