NEW BERN (WNCT) – To quote the famous line from “Game of Thrones,” winter is coming … or at least Winterfeast is.
Winterfeast will be held at Tryon Palace on March 26 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. on the Tryon Palace South Lawn. If you’re ready for some yummy oysters, roasted pig and some good music, Tryon Palace has got you covered.
If you’ve never been to a traditional oyster and pig roast, this would be the best place to visit for an all-in-one stop. Normally held during January, the 2022 Winterfeast fundraising is now being held on Saturday, March 26. Winterfeast: Spring Edition will be held outside on the south lawn of Tryon Palace with views of the Governor’s Mansion and the Trent River.
In addition to the bushels of plump, juicy oysters, Winterfeast attendees can feast upon savory roast pig, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, chowder, mac ‘n cheese, apple cobbler and more. The band, Molasses Creek of Ocracoke Island, will be performing throughout the evening.
