Live Music

BOOM on stage, photo by Byron DazeyThe Portland Pirate Festival has gained a reputation for bringing together the best eclectic musical performers in the Northwest, from the buccaneer rock of The Dreadnoughts to the scurvy ballads and chanteys of Shantyman Tom Lewis. MUSIC


Dance, Juggling, and Puppetry


The Portland Pirate Festival has something for everyone. You’ll be immersed in the the best of pirate culture as Cathedral Park transforms into a bustling dock-side village full of wandering buccaneers, redcoats, clowns, jugglers, and balladeers. Between performances you’ll be entertained by our favorite Buccaneer Emcee–the talented Dave Nichols. DANCE & PERFORMANCE

Scupper Monkey Island

The incredible Kraken devours a ship whole while revelers whiz down the 30 foot slides! The kids play area features several inflatable rides, plus the Clowns Unlimited 24-foot climbing wall. Attractions suit a variety of ages, from toddler to adult. Wandering performers, puppet shows, a family market, free tattoos, balloons, and more.


The Sea Grotto

This Adventure Gully promises to be more fun than a ship-load of gold, with games and activities for the whole family.

     

  • Mix with wandering entertainers.
  • Witness a live sword fight at the Scoundral’s Court fight arena
  • Engage in contests of skill for the mind and body.
  • Hoist a mug of fine “Ninkasi” ale or a cup of delicious ”Krakan Rum” Grog at Oberon’s Tavern while the adventure continues.
  • Delight in the experience of the “Stumptown Beard & Mustache Competition” and “Privateer’s Scavanger Hunts”.  Ye might even walk away with some valuable swag.

 

Marauders Market & Tortuga Market

All manner of pirate merchants selling their wares while roaming entertainers create a festive and bustling center of activity. This is the best pirate shopping you’ll find in the Portland area, with hand-made crafts and garb, trinkets, and toys for kids and adults. But keep your eye out for the Kings Navy; they be hunting pirates.

 



Historical Displays and Demonstrations

The old world comes alive as pirates, buskers, craftsmen and blacksmiths recreate life in a make-shift island settlement. With historical displays and demonstrations to educate and entertain scallywags of all ages.
