Yarmouth Clam Festival

60th Anniversary of the Yarmouth Clam Festival

A milestone that reflects six decades of tradition, volunteerism, and community spirit.

What began in 1965 as a local clambake has grown into Maine's largest free-admission festival, drawing more than 100,000 visitors each year. Behind the scenes, hundreds of volunteers work together to create a weekend full of food, entertainment, and meaningful community impact.
