May is for Mainers!
Join us in the heart of downtown Auburn for the 2023

MAY 6, 2023
How it began.
A lobster festival in central Maine? It started as an April Fool's joke on the City of Auburn Facebook page, and now it's a reality! Auburn may not be a coastal town, but we LOVE Maine, and we wholeheartedly support the Maine lobster industry. So, join us on May 6 in beautiful downtown Auburn, along the banks of the Androscoggin River for the Auburn Lobster Festival, featuring LIVE music, Maine craft brews, food trucks, lobster, and lots of fun for all ages.
