While the live music is loud and the crowds are cheering at the crab races, there is a quieter—but equally thrilling—excitement building next to the T-Shirt booth. The Texas Crab Festival Silent Auction will be open, and this year, the selection is as vast as the Bolivar horizon.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector, a coastal decorator, or just someone who loves a good “foodie” find, the silent auction is your chance to snag a treasure while supporting local charities.
A Showcase of Local Talent
The heart of our silent auction lies in the incredible generosity of our Festival Vendors. As you walk through the rows of dozens of items on display, you’ll notice that many of the most unique pieces come directly from the artisans you’ve seen around the grounds.
For the Ultimate Fan: Autographed Memorabilia
If your walls at home are looking a little bare, you’ll want to head straight for the huge display of autographed memorabilia. On display will be a large collection of authenticated items that are sure to be the centerpiece of any “man cave” or sports room. From legendary Texas sports icons to music greats, the bidding is expected to be fast and furious for these high-value collectibles. And, you don’t have to hover over a clipboard to win. You can view the items and start bidding now at:

Why It Matters
Every winning bid does more than just get you a great gift; it helps the Texas Crab Festival give back to the Bolivar Peninsula. All proceeds go toward local scholarships and community grants, ensuring that our “Crab Fest” spirit lasts all year long.
Stop by the auction tent this weekend, find that “must-have” item, and get your bids in before the clock runs out!
