Vinyl enthusiasts and music lovers will have a unique opportunity to expand their collections this weekend as MVYRADIO brings its Blue Lobster Vinyl Swap to Cape Cod Beer. The event, scheduled for Saturday, May 17th from 1-5 pm, promises an afternoon filled with music, community, and the thrill of discovering new records in an exciting way.
Bringing Music Lovers Together Through Community
The collaboration between the popular radio station and the local brewery aims to bring together people with a shared passion for vinyl in a relaxed atmosphere. With additional attractions like live music and prizes, the event is positioned to be a highlight of the weekend for both serious collectors and casual fans alike.
How the Blue Lobster Vinyl Swap Works
Cape Cod Beer’s taproom will transform into a vinyl lover’s gathering on Saturday afternoon, with the main event—the Blue Lobster Vinyl Swap—kicking off promptly at 2pm. Participants are invited to bring a record they’re willing to part with, wrapped as a surprise gift. Upon arrival, MVYRADIO DJs will collect these mystery albums and assign each participant a number. When called, attendees will select a random wrapped record to unwrap and add to their collection, creating an element of surprise and discovery.
Live Music, Surprises, and a Unique Exchange Format
Adding to the excitement, MVYRADIO will contribute 10 special wrapped records to the mix, each containing additional surprises attached to the album covers. Unlike traditional exchanges, this event keeps things friendly with no stealing or forced trades allowed. While the swap takes center stage, musician Dan Byrnes will provide live entertainment throughout the afternoon, creating the perfect soundtrack for this community gathering of music enthusiasts. Various prizes will also be awarded during the event, giving attendees multiple chances to walk away with something special.
Free and Open to All – With or Without a Record
The Blue Lobster Vinyl Swap is designed to be accessible to everyone, with free admission for all attendees. While bringing a vinyl record is necessary for those wishing to participate in the swap itself, anyone is welcome to come enjoy the atmosphere, music, and refreshments without taking part in the exchange. No reservations are required, though an RSVP option is available for those who want to secure their spot in advance. Seating will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so early arrival is recommended for those hoping to grab a table.
While enjoying the music and festivities, attendees will have plenty of refreshment options available. Cape Cod Beer will offer their selection of craft beers alongside hard seltzers, cocktails, and non-alcoholic alternatives for purchase. For those working up an appetite, the Red River BBQ food truck will be on-site starting at 2pm, serving up delicious food to complement the brewery’s beverages. The event, hosted by MVYRADIO and sponsored by Cape Cod Beer, highlights the strong community partnerships that continue to bring unique entertainment options to Cape Cod residents and visitors.
