Portarlington Mussel Festival 2026
The Portarlington Mussel Festival is held in the picturesque village of Portarlington on the Bellarine Peninsula.
The 18th annual Portarlington Mussel Festival is on Saturday 10th January 2026.
We are looking forward to welcoming at least 20,000 visitors. Whilst our primary objective is to promote the Bellarine Peninsula, we are also keen to showcase Victoria's fine food and wine producers at our one day festival.
Food and drink stalls, market stalls, great local musicians playing across five stages, roving entertainers for the kids, plus art shows, cooking demonstrations and local beer and wine tastings, it was a great day out for the whole family!
The Portarlington Mussel Festival is held from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM on the second Saturday in January every year in the picturesque village of Portarlington on the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria.
It costs just $5* cash per adult, and free for kids, to enter the Portarlington Mussel Festival with all surpluses redistributed to local charities and community organisations for the benefit of the community.
