Four Oaks is bringing back a favorite fall gathering on Thursday, November 5, 2026, when the Four Oaks Chamber of Commerce hosts its annual all-you-can-eat Oyster Roast at the Four Oaks Fire Department.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m., dinner begins at 6 p.m., and the evening runs until 8 p.m. The official Chamber event announcement also confirms a silent auction and advance ticket sales.

A fall tradition built around good food

For oyster lovers, the words “all you can eat” are reason enough to mark the calendar. The gathering is a chance to sit down with friends, meet neighbors and enjoy a relaxed evening in Four Oaks.

The Chamber's description of its previous fall oyster roast featured steamed oysters, shrimp, barbecue sliders, hush puppies and slaw. That gives readers a sense of the event's food tradition, although the Chamber has not published a complete menu for the 2026 dinner.

Guests with dietary questions or who want to confirm specific side dishes should contact the Chamber before purchasing tickets.

It's the kind of small-town evening where conversation and community are as much a part of the experience as the meal.

When and where

The 2026 Oyster Roast takes place Thursday, November 5, at the Four Oaks Fire Department, 825 Lassiter Road in Four Oaks.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. The scheduled dinner service is from 6 to 8 p.m., giving guests time to arrive, settle in and enjoy the meal.

Because this is a ticketed event, anyone planning to attend should purchase admission ahead of time rather than assume tickets will be available at the door.

The Chamber's October ticket announcement confirms that sales have begun and links directly to the checkout page.

A silent auction adds to the evening

Alongside the oyster roast, the Chamber is advertising a silent auction. These auctions give attendees an additional activity during dinner and an opportunity to bid on items while visiting with other guests.

The organizers have not published a complete list of auction items for this year, so guests can look forward to discovering what's available at the event.

Anyone interested in donating an item or asking about the auction should contact the Chamber directly.

Why local gatherings matter

The Four Oaks Chamber of Commerce organizes and promotes events that bring residents and businesses together throughout the year.

Events like the Oyster Roast offer a way for longtime neighbors to reconnect while introducing newer residents to people and organizations in the community.

That sense of connection is part of the appeal of small-town traditions, especially as the holiday season approaches.

The Chamber's November 5 events calendar confirms the Oyster Roast and helps visitors find other upcoming local activities.

How to get tickets

The Chamber's official event page includes a “Purchase Tickets” link that leads to its online Square checkout.

The current announcement does not state a 2026 admission price in the visible event details. A price listed for an earlier year's Oyster Roast should not be assumed to apply this year.

Check the checkout page for the current ticket total and any processing fees before paying.

Those who prefer to ask questions first can contact the Four Oaks Chamber of Commerce at 919-963-4004 or info@fouroakschamber.com.

The Chamber office is listed at 109 West South Railroad Street in Four Oaks. Call before visiting to confirm office hours and whether in-person ticket assistance is available.

Make a night of it

With doors opening at 5:30 p.m., guests have an opportunity to arrive before the meal begins, catch up with friends and look over the silent auction.

Consider inviting a neighbor or making the Oyster Roast a casual get-together for a group of friends.

Those who are new to Four Oaks can also explore the Chamber's website to learn about other community events and local businesses.
