Rocky Mountain Oyster Fry

  • Washoe Club 112 S C Street Virginia City, NV USA (map)

We’re taking the phrase, “have a ball” to a new level with the 31st annual Rocky Mountain Oyster Fry. This St. Patrick’s Day celebration unites daring revelers for a wild and outlandish festival featuring tasty testes, a Ball Breaker Saloon Crawl, St. Patrick’s Day Parade, costume contests and more.

Cooks compete for bragging rights by preparing their most innovative and, sometimes, outlandish recipes featuring oysters of the land variety. You might forget what you’re really eating – seriously it’s that good. Purchase a sampler and select from grilled, smoked, fried or even oysters in a taco.

Join the Ball Breaker Saloon Crawl, touring our historic saloons and more with tasty libations and samples. Not to mention, it’s a great way to wash down those oysters!

This full-on Irish testicle festival is the place to be for St. Patrick’s Day, making it one of the largest celebrations in Nevada and the most outlandish atmosphere found west of the Mississippi. Join in the fun for the 2022 Rocky Mountain Oyster Fry.
