This year’s culinary journey isn’t just about traveling—it’s about “tasting culture” through every dish! The Phuket Lobster Festival 2025 returns in grand style for its 10th anniversary under the theme “Lobster Legacy, Gastronomy for the Future,” reflecting Phuket’s ambition to become a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy.
Throughout August, food enthusiasts can savor the “Seven-Color Phuket Lobster” at over 100 restaurants across the island, each crafting more than 500 special menu items at accessible prices—from local favorites to fine dining establishments and trendy cafés.
