Dublin Bay Prawn Festival is a celebration of all things Dublin Bay and all things fun, the festival offers an interesting mix of street food fair, in-house specialities, music, family fun and a programme of walks, talks and seaside antics.
Howth is the home of the Dublin Bay Prawn, this small orange crustacean is known by a few names, depending on who you ask: the Nephrop by scientists, Langoustine when sold whole in seafood restaurants, as Scampi when its tail meat is deep fried in breadcrumbs or simply a ‘prawn’ by the fishermen who catch it. Regardless it is, without doubt, one of the tastiest foods out there, a fact celebrated by this festival. Whatever way you like your Dublin Bay Prawns – barbecued, whole, shelled, fried, skewered, marinated, sauced – Howth’s many award winning restaurants will serve their favourite prawn dishes in bite sized portions at the Street Food Fair, in addition to a variety of other miniature dishes, so you can enjoy the many tastes that Howth offers. The food village will also include cookery demonstrations for all those budding cooks.
