Join us on the waterfront as Maritime Gloucester marks 25 years of hands-on education, community connection, and maritime heritage.

Heritage on the Harbor is a day-long celebration that opens our historic campus to the public, featuring interactive exhibits, working waterfront tours, dockside exploration, and special behind-the-scenes access to our campus. Come learn, touch, and discover the rich maritime traditions that have shaped our harbor—and our mission—for a quarter century.

Make time for a traditional boiled lobster or lobster roll, chowder, or chicken, etc. and catch up with your Beverly friends and neighbors at Lynch Park. As you enjoy fresh lobster at picnic tables under the big tent, local bands will provide an oceanside soundtrack for your listening or dancing delight. Meanwhile, local businesses, elected officials and politicians, and nonprofit organizations will be set up around the park to share information – and usually some fun lawn games – with you.

Amazingly, 90% all the trash from this event is diverted from the waste stream with the help of Beverly’s Waste Reduction Committee (keep your eye out for composting and recycling stations under the tent). For parents of young children, enter your child in the “Spirit of LobsterFest” costume contest and your little crustacean might just win a prize! (Contest is technically open to all ages but adults are just not going to win this thing.)

We look forward to seeing you at Lynch Park!

Please note that there is a non-Beverly resident parking fee at Lynch Park:  weekdays $15, weekends and holidays $25, seniors and active military personnel are $5 per car weekdays.  There is no parking fee on Wednesday, August 6th which is LobsterFest.

Love is in the air. Join us at Hotel Salem for their Wedding Expo. Sample our beer, learn about our private events and catering, meet other vendors.
