Yarmouth Clam Festival

Maine's Julia Gagnon will be the grand marshal of the Yarmouth Clam Festival parade.

These annual competitions in Maine are quirky, out of the ordinary, and can even be downright dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.

Lori is a returning champ. Brittany, however, is a total newbie. Thankfully she got a lesson.

Clam Festival week is here! Here are some of the best places to sit down and eat or have a drink after you're festival-ed out!

Always the third Friday in July!

Sadly, I don't think this will be the only festival to cancel in 2021.

Lori and Jeff have been shucking clams for about 10 years...and have lost every single year. Jeff wasn't around this year - so this is Jenna.

Wanna shuck clams for fame and fortune? And the most important reason - to beat NewsCenter Maine!

The 51st Annual Yarmouth Clam Festival is coming July 15th-17th! Lori will be back for the 'Clam Shucking' contest - but with a new partner. Who will it be?

Yarmouth residents take the Clam Festival Parade very seriously. So seriously in fact that they'll claim their spot on Main street days before the parade (see above photo). It's become a bit of a ritual to place a lawn chair on the side of the road a couple days before the parade and the people of Yarmouth seem to respect other people's property and leave the chairs where the are...

Lori and I have participated for the last four years in the celebrity clam shucking contest at the Yarmouth Clam Festival. All four years, we've walked away losers. This year though, we were determined to change all that.
