About This Event
Sunday, August 10th, 2025
The Peter’s Clam Eating Competition in Island Park, NY is a beloved Long Island summer tradition that blends community spirit, coastal flavor, and charitable giving. Hosted by the iconic Peter’s Clam Bar, the event has grown from a friendly challenge into a high-energy showdown where contestants race against the clock to devour as many clams as possible. Set against the waterfront backdrop, the competition draws locals, spectators, and media alike, all celebrating Island Park pride. More than just a contest, it’s a festive, family-friendly gathering complete with cheering crowds, seaside vibes, and lasting memories—while also supporting local charities that give back to the community, one shell at a time. We are raising donations for Cooper Graham.
