Story
Launched in Montreal, Quebec in 2013, Lobster Clam Jam began with the idea of showcasing great food by home-grown talent, and creative and delicious cocktails by marquee mixologists. Our event is a great chance for parents and their little ones to spend a day together, enjoying delicious food, in a friendly atmosphere of fresh air and sunshine.
Children can play in our supervised Kid’s Korner while their parents and grandparents relax, socialize and enjoy delicious food in a friendly atmosphere of fresh air and sunshine.
Entertainment
There will be over 25 restaurants, a Mojito Bar, a Beer Bar, a Wine Bar, a Coffee Bar and 6 Dessert sections on site!
Guests will be treated to a culinary experience by each restaurant, using the best in local and international ingredients. Each of the restaurants will serve 2 different signature dishes totalling over 50 different delicious dishes to try.
The event will be set up in a beautiful outdoor atmosphere along the Lachine canal just west of the Atwater Market.

Giving Back
We donate a portion of our proceeds to Starlight Children’s Foundation Canada.
