If you have a new event or one that you cant find in the event calendar... Please email us at events@pyracy.com and we'll get it in the formal calendar. You can post in the raids section, but it will get more facetime in the events calendar. We had to limit who can post there, because Stynky says it gets ripe in there right quick with multiple hands in the pie. I've been workin' on the events calendar for the Pub. We are trying to keep it generally Pirate focused... So I've included the following types of events: Pirate Invasions/Festivals Historical Reenactments Maritime Heritage and Seafood festivals Tallship festivals Renaiss…

Thought it might be nice to have topic that makes suggestions for attending a pirate event both as a performer and as patron. Anyone offer any advice based upon things they have experienced?

ok so i have hit a logistical snag. a four day field event without a shower seems a bit much to me. what can be done to accomplish this without a supporting infrastructure or is it best to tell attendees to grab a pot of hot water, a bucket and fend for themselves? any ideas???????????????

An event organizer was recently asking questions on Facebook related to what was needed to encourage reenactors to come to an event. This got me to thinking about the question I posted in the topic: What are the elements of a good event for you? I am thinking of three or four things that make YOU want to return to a pirate reenactment. I have some ideas, but I don't want to start this conversation off by guiding it in a particular direction, so the floor is open. (I am not looking for a laundry list here, just a couple of things that stand out in your mind that cause you to return to particular events year after year.)

All right, I've got May, June, July, and August off from law school. I'm just outside Washington, DC. I want to go to at least one pirate event this summer to see some of you fine folks, but I'm extremely poor, which pretty well limits me to Maryland, Virginia, and maybe North Carolina or Pennsylvania. Where should I go? Right now I'm looking at going to the Rock Hall Pirates and Wenches Fantasy Weekend on Aug. 13 and 14. If I have enough money for gas I might go to Beaufort Pirates Invasion instead (naturally they're scheduled on the same weekend). Are there any other pirate events around my area I ought to consider?

Well it's that time of year again, the time when I get numerous phone calls due to my connections on Ocracoke Island about when I am going to organize a festival there. The problem is always the same though. Back in the eighties they had a thing called Buccanner days, didn't really have anything to do with Pirates though, mor of an excuse to get drunk and race dune buggies on the beach. Someone got seriously injured one year and that event has left a foul taste in the mouth of county officials ever since. I may have a better chance with talks this year though due to some new blood being elected to the board. The question is this. If I can get approval this would be …

PARDON OUR DUST Stynky and I have been working on re-arranging the events in the Raids, Boarding Parties & Pyrate Events into groupings of the month they start in. We are making a forum for each event, with pinned information copied from the No Quarter Given calendar page: http://www.noquartergiven.net/calendar.htm It's tedious to copy over all the links as well (I may slowly go back and fill them in), so if a link to the events website is not present, then go to the NQG Calendar page to see if there is a link. If an event is not listed, then start a topic for it in the general Raids forum, and we will catch up later and make a forum for it and move it to it's co…

Not Sure when it will be, or if anyone is interested, but a few of my mates have already expressed an interest. But the Devil's Brood Pyrates (Ohio Chapter) is planning a pirate photoshoot, sometime in the spring at either Squire's Castle or Mentor Headlands Beach (both are in Ohio, one is on Lake Erie) This event is still in the early stages of development, so if the event is gonna happen, I need to have enough people interested and planning on attending... it will probably be in the spring/summer of this year. There is NO entrance fee, or fee to have photos taken, or fees whatsoever, policys in regard to food/drink/props are essentually, bring you own, and donations,…

We are beginning planning for a pirate festival in Port Royal, Jamaica. We would be headquartered at Morgan's Resort, which is in Port Royal proper. What we're looking for now is a general raise of hands of those interested. The event will probably be in April or May, 2007. Activities would include vendor booths at the resort, a trip to Lime Cay, which is near Rackham's Cay (which is now submerged by the way), a presentation on the sunken city, a historic ghost tour of Port Royal, a visit to Fort Charles, which has artifacts from the sunken city, perhaps a candlelit dinner there as well, a trip to the Money Museum to see an amazing collection of money through history, …

I'm starting an all purpose thread about upcoming, current and recently attended events to help our members find events that are going on all around the world. If you see an ad for an event anywhere, just drop a link here and we'll discuss the details! For example, the Sheppey Pirates are holding an event the first week of August with an open air cinema, water fight and live music. Sea Dog Night and Gypsey Carnival is July 14th - 18th in Lebanon, Oregon. The Battleship New Jersey Pirate Invasion is on July 9th.

This topic was born of a question and suggestions from another thread, so we're making it a thread unto itself. Tell us about your favorite events. Tell us why you like them, for any reasons which seem important to you. This isn't a thread about pros and cons or the why and why not, but just your personal reasons for liking event. Lots of events have pros and cons, but we're interested in what you like about particular events and what you would suggest to someone who has never been to them or the locations in which they're held. You can decide how to define it, so don't worry about the definitions of others. Just tell us about your favorites and what keeps bringing…
