LondonSwedes Crayfish Festival 2016
LondonSwedes Crayfish Festival 2016
During 6 weeks every year we Swedes celebrate the crayfish season by eating loads of crayfish, drinking snaps and singing songs! It’s a bit like an extension of our Midsummer celebrations minus the Maypole!
Our crayfish parties are hugely popular so this year we are hosting four events over four days on the rooftop of a popular West London venue.

The Crayfish Company
Wild signal Crayfish caught in pristine waters throughout the UK. At The Crayfish Company they are cooking their crayfish the Swedish way: in a brine consisting of salt, sugar and dill. Yum!
They also supply lobsters. They have been providing us with delicious tasty crayfish since 2012 and they are always our first choice. If you are throwing your own crayfish party we can recommend getting yours from:
Skärgårdssnapsar
Snaps is a must on many Swedish holidays such as christmas, midsummer and especially during the crayfish season. Ocado offers a wide range of Swedens best snaps: Skärgårdssnapsar. You can order a mix of their miniature snaps such as “Vinga Akvavit” and “Kallsupen” from Ocado.
