This festival was first held in 1987. The parish of Arcade, in the municipality of Soutomaior, celebrates a large food festival during oyster season full of recreational activities. More than 100,000 oyster samples are distributed, which can be fresh, in a pie, marinated, etc. Other species are also present, such as cuttlefish or eel. Oysters have been called sea truffles, shellfish pearls and mermaids' sex, among others, which is proof of the devotion they inspire. The event was declared a Festival of Tourist Interest in 2012.
