Introducing Jekyll Island's Mash-Up Event
We were heartbroken when Hurricane Irma caused the cancellation of the 12th annual Shrimp & Grits Festival. But, we were not going to let that storm keep our community down.
This year, and this year only, we're having a special festival that merges some of the most-beloved elements from the Shrimp & Grits Festival and the Tree Lighting celebration into a new, two-day event Merry Shrimpmas.
Merry Shrimpmas will feature shrimp & grits dishes, live music, and an artists' market for holiday shopping. Younger festival-goers can take in story time with Santa Claus and play in the kids' zone. Festivities will culminate Saturday evening with the lighting of the great Jekyll Island Christmas Tree.
This celebration will provide an opportunity for everyone to support local businesses in the aftermath of the storm, and will offer the community a unique way to ring in the holiday season. We hope you will join us this November for this unique event.
Admission for Merry Shrimpmas is free. However, the Jekyll Island parking fee will be increased during this event. The fee is an additional $4 per daily/weekly pass; annual passes are not impacted. For additional information on the fee increase, please visit Park Entry & Parking Passes.
