In home waters, The Brigands will be performing at the Long Island Pirate Festival once again.  The L.I.Maritime Museum  is one of the nicest sites for a pirate festival – right on the water,  adjacent to the famous Museum, this family event is the perfect all day event to spend with fellow NY pirates.

Music by The Brigands, re-enactments by Ye Pyrate brotherhood, live cannon demonstrations, treasure hunts for the kids,  piratey type foods, and free entrance to the LI Maritime Museum.

This is it, the one, the biggest , the best. If you are any kind of pirate, you owe t to yourself to come to the Blackbeard Festival, in Hampton Va this year.

This FREE family event is the biggest pirate festival on the East coast, and possibly in the USA.  The Brigands have performed at Blackbeard for over 14 years, and it was the very first pirate event we played at. From world class pirate re-enactors,  fireworks, tall ships, sea battles, sword fights, authentic pirate vendors, to a  whole  camp devoted to childrens activities and shows,  Blackbeard will make a pirate out o’  ye for sure.
