Brixham Pirate Festival
On 2nd May 2026 to 4th May 2026
Visit Brixham on the first Bank Holiday weekend in May and join a mass gathering of Pirates from all walks of life and drawn from far and wide. With amazing live music, street entertainers, a Shanty Town, family area, living history exhibits and skirmishes (incredibly loud bangs and cannon fire!). It's a truly entertaining (and very exhausting!) day....
Reviews
- Delightful - The staff were all very friendly and the captain kept us entertained with his 'dad jokes' throughout. Recommend 100% for all ages. Great trip. Thank you.
- Atmospheric steam train - We took the steam train from Paignton to Kingswear and then the ferry to Dartmouth (inc in the ticket). It was a trip back in time and most enjoyable, despite the very rainy weather! Good value for money.
- Absolutely fabulous experience - The whole day was fabulous with great weather and steam trains. The line is one of the most scenic you will ever experience and is a must visit if in the area. I will definitely be back again :-)
