If you want a taste of Mandurah, Crab Fest is for you!

There is so much on offer this Mandurah Crab Fest!

We understand that not everyone is a seafood fanatic. That's why we've got a variety of options for non-seafood eaters and vegetarians. From savory delights to sweet treats, there's something for every palate.

Sip, Sip, Hooray!

Festival‑goers can once again soak up the relaxed, alfresco lifestyle Mandurah is known for at Crab Fest’s vibrant pop‑up bars. From craft beers and ciders to refreshing cocktails and local wines, there’s something to suit every taste — all served with stunning estuary and marina views.

Whether you’re grabbing a cold drink in the sunshine or settling in with friends as the sun sets over the water, the pop‑up bars are the perfect place to pause, unwind and toast to the weekend.

We’re bringing the experience back for Crab Fest 2026, with plenty of flavour, atmosphere and festival vibes. Check back soon to see what’s pouring this year.

The Fish Trap Cookbook

Crab Fest has a long history of offering unique experiences and tastes, which is the inspiration behind this collaborative cookbook - The Fish Trap.

This book celebrates Mandurah's food culture and brings together a range of locally inspired recipes from our city’s restaurants and chefs as well as some delicious dishes combining local produce from personalities a little further afield.
