Looking for the best seafood deal? Red Lobster Lobsterfest 2026 features ten unique lobster creations and new refreshing cocktails to satisfy every craving this season.

Getting hungry between roller coaster rides? While we usually stick to the parks, sometimes a deal is so “clawsome” it’s worth a quick trip off-property. Red Lobster has officially announced the return of Lobsterfest, and this year’s lineup is packed with new dishes that are perfect for fueling your next theme park adventure.

Whether you’re visiting the parks in Orlando or hitting up a coastal destination, Red Lobster Lobsterfest 2026 is the ultimate pit stop for seafood fans. This year features ten unique lobster creations, including five brand-new items like the Crispy Lobster & Shrimp Stack and Dueling Southern Tails.

“Nobody does lobster like Red Lobster, so you can’t miss this year’s Lobsterfest! With even more craveable dishes, it’s the perfect way to treat yourself and the ones you love,” said Sara Bittorf, chief experience officer at Red Lobster. “Whether you are dining with friends, family, or a significant other, this year’s lineup includes a delicious variety of new and signature items you’ll want to explore like one of our most popular, the Lobster Lover’s Dream®.”
