The Oistins Festival is an annual event that takes place traditionally every Easter weekend in the scenic fishing village of Oistins Barbados in the parish of Christ Church, on the south coast of the island. The Oistins  Festival celebrates the contribution made to Barbados by persons in the local fishing industry. The festival is a unique attraction that offers fun and entertainment for both locals and visitors alike.

Enjoy the sweet strains of calypso and reggae music coming from the sidewalk stalls, and the sounds of the traditional Barbados tuk band. Of course, dancing to all that music builds up an appetite, so head for the food and beverage stalls to enjoy traditional Bajan fare such as fish cakes, fried fish and pudding and souse, all washed down with a cool Banks Beer.

Local arts and crafts can also be found in abundance as talented craftsmen take the opportunity to display their wares.

It is arguably the largest community festival in Barbados with activities for the entire family!
