The Brixham Pirate Festival always takes place on the first May bank holiday weekend of the year.
In 2024, the dates for The Brixham Private Festival are 4th May 2024 – 6 May 2024.
One of Britain’s biggest and best (in our humble opinion), Pirate Festivals!
The Brixham Pirate Festival began in 2007 when members of the community decided to create an event to liven up one of the quietist bank holidays of the year.
Since those humble beginnings, the festival has grown into one of the biggest pirate gatherings in the world, and attracts people from all four corners to partake in a weekend of Piratical merriment!
The 3-day festival takes place across the entire town, with its epicentre around the harbour (the centre of Brixham), and the main stage under the Old Fish Market.
