SAVE THE DATE!

THANK YOU

Our 4th annual ShrimpFest & Brew Hullabaloo is a wrap! THANK YOU to everyone who came out today despite the less-than-perfect weather! We had a great time and can’t wait for next year. Save the date for next year: June 6, 2026. 

Princeton Rotary Club presents a fun-filled day for all ages: ShrimpFest & Brew Hullabaloo! Kick off your summer with the Annual ShrimpFest at Princeton’s Rotary Park and enjoy live music, great food, and tasty beverages. Live bands will set the backdrop while food trucks fire up their griddles and your neighbors in Princeton Rotary cook and serve grilled and fried shrimp boats. 

There’s a little something for everyone so bring the whole family to join in the fun, including kids’ activities; face painting, play areas, and more! Proceeds from ShrimpFest will benefit local high school students with scholarship funding as well as the various community groups and organizations supported by Rotary annually.
