The annual Brixham Pirate Festival, with a crew made up of first-time brigands and buccaneers, held in Brixham, Devon takes place over the Early May Bank Holiday weekend, is a swashbuckling mix of seaside shenanigans and pirate-themed fun for all the family. The Brixham Pirate Festival is a free to attend event that can only happen with the contributions and help from all of our amazing donors, sponsors, volunteers, and friends please give what you can when you can to keep the festival alive - it’s never to late to donate!

Billed as “the annual gathering of the world’s most infamous pirates and lowly scallywags,” over the past decade the event has grown into hugely popular celebration of all things piratical. And all with the perfectly authentic backdrop of this charming historic port, which has been home to a number of smugglers and pirates over the centuries.

The Nao Victoria will be sailing into Brixham Harbour especially for the 2024 Brixham Pirate Festival, and will be available for viewing throughout the entire festival.

This incredible vessel is not to be missed, step back in history by stepping on board one of the most important ships to have sailed the seas!

Wander around the harbour and discover all sorts of pirate antics, including live music, street performers, street theatre, balloon modeling, historical re-enactments, fancy dress competitions, children's activities and themed food and drink offerings.
