New London Pirate Night August 17, 2024

Ahoy there, mateys! Embrace the legend of Captain Kidd and the joy of pirate play. Don your pirate attire and gather with us at Parade Plaza by the Pirate Ship for a delightful photo session. Mingle with the swashbuckling crew, enjoy a shanty or two, and engage in conversations about seeking hidden treasures as we unveil hints on the exciting New London Pirate Adventure Map.

Ahoy, me hearties! The boisterous Bawdy Buccaneers are charting a course for the New London Pirate Festival on August 19th, right at Parade Plaza!

Embark on a musical voyage with Captain Lance D. Boyle of the Picaroon Princess and his trusty First Mate & “Cruise Director,” Truly Scrumptious. They’ll dock their vessel, The Picaroon Princess, at New London Parade Plaza, ready to welcome fellow pirates. Join in the merry exchange of tales and treasures, raise a chorus of beloved pirate melodies, or even learn a fresh tune or two.

 

Can’t wait to meet our fellow Pirate Brethren and Buccaneers!
