Grenada Lobster and Lambie Festival in Carriacou and Petite Martinique

Grenada's Lobster and Lambie Festival celebrates spiny lobster and queen conch, the smaller Grenadine islands' signature seafoods, with cooking demonstrations and tastings across Carriacou and Petite Martinique each January. Launched as a first-of-its-kind event, it gives local fishers and cooks a dedicated platform distinct from Grenada's larger chocolate, spice and rum-focused food festivals.

Grenada's Lobster and Lambie Festival celebrates two of the Grenadine islands' signature seafoods, spiny lobster and lambi, the local name for queen conch, with a weekend of cooking, tastings and community events held across Carriacou and Petite Martinique each January.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

As a first-of-its-kind event for the smaller Grenadine islands, the Lobster and Lambie Festival gives Carriacou and Petite Martinique's specific seafood traditions dedicated public celebration rather than folding them into Grenada's larger, mainland-centred food festival calendar

02

The mystery stays covered

Because lambi, queen conch, faces conservation pressure from overharvesting across parts of the Caribbean, the festival increasingly pairs culinary celebration with sustainability messaging around responsible harvesting, connecting the event to the same conservation concerns shaping the island's dive and reef programming
