Seafest is for those who enjoy good food, good company and a good time.
Kaikoura has welcomed 'Seafesters' every October to establish itself as one of the original festivals on the New Zealand festival circuit. Anyone who hosts a festival for 23 years in a row enjoys what they do!
The Big Top Bash kick starts Seafest as a pre-festival party with 3 party bands.
Seafest celebrates life by the sea with festival vendors offering abundant seafood delights, fantastic choices for Landlubbers, Classic Pimms, craft beer and regional wines.
Sea themed costumes are a must. If you don’t see yourself as a sea creature – a super hero will do.
Kaikoura is all about crayfish, and fish. We are a fishing town after all.
You also find some of the most breath taking scenery in the country with a stunning coastline. Our latest claim to fame is we now have the newest coastline in NZ! Even a new surf beach right in town.
Kaikoura is an unforgettable location for some of NZ’s best eco-tourism experiences, fascinating Maori & European histories along with relaxing and exhilarating land activities. Take a little extra time to explore as we have it all!

CANCELLATION
Seafest has become known as a festival that meets and greets the elements – no matter what is thrown at it. A huge centre marquee means revellers can enjoy the day and shelter from sun, rain, hail or snow. And we have had it all!
