Join us in celebrating this Italian American holiday tradition!
This beloved tradition was born right here in the United States, when Italian immigrants in cities like Philadelphia brought their Christmas Eve seafood customs from Southern Italy. Over time, it grew into the festive, seven-course seafood feast we know today. It is a uniquely Italian American way to celebrate the season with family, friends, and incredible food.
