What you need to know
The Newport Seafood & Wine Festival is one of the Oregon coast's signature winter events — 50-plus Pacific Northwest wineries and 20-plus local chefs serving Dungeness crab and coastal seafood under a big tent, plus regional artisans and live music (the 2026 edition was the 49th annual, February 19-22). 2027 is not yet officially dated — plan the third-weekend-of-February pattern, roughly February 18-21, 2027 (the 50th anniversary). The RV base is ideal: South Beach State Park sits about two minutes from the festival grounds with a full campground beneath the Yaquina Bay Bridge — pair the festival with prime February storm-watching, tidepools and the Oregon Coast Aquarium.

Safety + legal
February on the Oregon coast means storms, wind and rain — pack serious rain gear, watch for sneaker waves and never turn your back on the surf, and keep a sober driver for the wine-festival return.
Insider tip — what you won't find elsewhere
South Beach State Park is ~2 min from the festival grounds — the closest RV base, with beach, tidepools and the aquarium next door. February storm-watching is a bonus reason to book it.
