Bodega Bay Fisherman's Festival

Since 1973 the Bodega Bay community has hosted our annual Fisherman’s Festival, a festival packed with events for people of all ages – craft booths, live music, good food, entertainment and more.

Plus we have something for every palate from barbecued oysters, local fish & chips, clam chowder and a variety of food trucks. Live music and entertainers perform on the main stage all day Saturday and Sunday. Artisans and vendors from all over California and beyond offer a wide selection of arts and crafts.

Alaska Day at Fort Ross

The Alaska Native Community at Metini-Fort Ross welcomes all to Alaska Native Day May 17 & 18, 2025. Please join us as we continue to honor our Alaska Native history in the California lands of the Kashia Pomo. We will be celebrating our cultural practices through the sharing of our traditional foods and stories from our elders. Alaska Natives have a long history of relationship to Metini through the Russian hunting expeditions in the 1800’s. Alaska Natives were forcefully brought from their homelands by the Russian American Company to build Fort Ross and hunt sea otters for the benefit of the Russian American Company and at great cost to the Alaska Natives.  The Alaska Native community is grateful to the Kashia Pomo for welcoming us on their lands so we may pay tribute to our ancestors and continue to strengthen our community. Please join us to learn more of our Alaska Native history and continuing cultural practices.

27th annual BODEGA SEAFOOD, ART & WINE FESTIVAL

PARTY WITH YOUR CALAMARI!

Festival hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, August 26, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, August 27.  Admission is $20 in advance for adults, $25 at gate. Discounts offered for seniors, teens, first responders and military; under 12 are free.  Special combo tickets for entry and tasting are available via advance tickets: https://www.simpletix.com/e/27th-annual-bodega-seafood-art-wine-festiv-tickets-126125.

Held on a rural ranch, a mile inland from the spectacular Sonoma Coast, the Bodega Seafood, Art & Wine Festival is a sophisticated, yet down-home, event unlike any other. It has garnered the reputation of being one of the premier art, wine, microbrew and food festivals in California. The picturesque Watts Ranch, in the village where Alfred Hitchcock once filmed his classic thriller, The Birds, is home to this annual benefit, which attracts thousands of foodies, arts appreciators, wine and beer fans and music lovers, many who’ve been coming since its inception in 1994.

The festival is a food lover’s dream, especially for those who love seafood. Calamari, crab cakes, oysters and chowders, more than thirty seafood dishes will be offered up by more than a dozen different vendors. Non-fish eaters will have no trouble finding delicious vegetarian options, meat, chicken and sweet treats galore.

The Wine and Microbrewed Beer Tasting is always a popular part of the event. With 40-plus companies pouring their creations, the tasting tent rocks all weekend long. Offering a mix of known brands, plus many small, up and coming companies, it’s the ideal locale to find your next favorite drink. The cost is $30 for a commemorative glass and 6 tastes. Additional tastes are $3. Wine and beer by the bottle is available for purchase from some of our companies, so you can sample and then take some home with you. There’s also a Beer/Wine Booth to purchase drinks by the glass.

The quality of the art and fine craft is unrivaled in Sonoma County and beyond. This juried show attracts artisans from throughout California and other parts of the country. The festival appeals to a broad range of attendees, providing a mix of higher end fine art and craft along with more moderately priced craft. The festival producers are artists themselves and know the ins and outs of doing shows from both sides, having traveled around the country doing craft fairs for more than 30 years.

Entrance fee: $10, kids under 12 free.

The picturesque small town of Jenner, located at the mouth of the Russian River, has long been a strong force for environmental preservation on the coast, despite its size.  While small in numbers with a population of only 170 fulltime residents, this community comes together to make big changes, and to create a sense of local pride.
