What is it?

Plymouth Pirate Weekend will return to the waterfront on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th May with pirate-themed entertainment and activities for all the family.

The entertainment will include appearances from the infamous Jonty Depp, a pirate treasure trail, pirate school, cannon fire, and a giant whale.  The pirate treasure trail will challenge youngsters to win a medallion by finding Cap ‘n’ Jacks scurvy crew, following the clues. Children will be encouraged to attend the pirate weekend in fancy dress to win pirate prizes.

On the Sunday visitors will have the chance to venture inside the National Marine Aquarium’s Giant Whale to hear tales of mermaids and pirates.
