Firefly Distillery announces dates for popular Oyster Roast Series

October 21, 2024

November through March, five seasonal events bringing together the Lowcountry

Firefly Distillery, South Carolina’s most visited distillery, announces the return of its popular seasonal Sunday Oyster Roast Series. Partnering with Lowcountry Oyster Co for the fourth year in a row and new to join, Reeds Catering, these ticketed all-you-can-eat oyster roasts will kick off in November and run each month through March. In addition to oysters, guests can enjoy music from Charleston’s top DJs, with food truck fare from various cuisines, specialty Firefly cocktails, Bloody Marys, and beer available for purchase. Available online now, tickets are $35 per person and are required for entry.

“We’re excited to bring back our annual oyster roast series,” says Firefly Co-Owner Scott Newitt. “Oyster roasts are a core Lowcountry tradition, and these events are about more than just great seafood—they’re about keeping that tradition strong, supporting local businesses, and bringing the community together in a meaningful way.”

The oyster roasts will run one Sunday per month from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. with oysters being served from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Special event features include a Bloody Mary bar with pickled garnishes, signature Firefly cocktails and mocktails, and beers and soft drinks for purchase. Guests are encouraged to bring their own oyster shucking gear and towels, lawn games, and chairs to relax and enjoy the festivities with friends and neighbors. Attendees can even catch Sunday football, broadcasted throughout the distillery. Well-behaved dogs are also welcome to join in on the fun but must remain outdoors and on a leash at all times.
