Compare Harvest on the Harbor’s lobster and oyster sessions and official ticket links. The homepage and ticket listing now agree on October 16–17; the FAQ still starts October 15. Confirm the dates and venue entrance with the organizer before travelling.
When: October 16–17 listed · FAQ still differs · Multiple sessions · see official schedule
Where: Maine Studio Works
170 Anderson Street, Portland, ME 04101
Admission: Ticketed · ages 21+
Checked October 13: the homepage and ticket listing give October 16–17, and the ticket program does not include the previously listed Thursday spirits session. The FAQ still gives October 15–17; no cancellation is inferred from that discrepancy. The FAQ gives 170 Anderson Street, while the ticket page’s venue block gives 140; both name Maine Studio Works. Confirm dates and entrance with the organizer before buying or travelling. Definitive Event structured data remains withheld while these conflicts persist.

Before you buy tickets.
Do I need advance tickets?
Yes. The organizer requires advance purchase and says sales are final and non-refundable. Check the specific session and current checkout terms before paying.
Can children attend?
The festival is advertised as 21+. Its FAQ permits infants in slings or carriers but does not allow strollers. Ask the organizer about your situation before purchasing.
Are dietary accommodations available?
The organizer says participating businesses choose what to serve and dietary restrictions cannot be accommodated. Contact the festival directly before buying if that affects whether you can attend.
How should I plan arrival?
The FAQ mentions street parking, the Marginal Way park-and-ride and taxi or rideshare options. This is not a guarantee of a parking space. Confirm the entrance and allow time for arrival.
