The Pirate Invasion on Bald Head Island

Ahoy Matey the Pirate Invasion returns to Bald Head Island June 15-17, 2018, for a weekend full of freebooter fun. We are celebrating the 300th anniversary of Black Beard’s death with the theme “Pirates helping Pirates” which has raised money for the British Virgin Island hurricane recovery and rebuilding work. All hands-on deck for these exciting events! 

On Friday, June 15th, Party with the Pirates at 7:00pm in front of Delphina’s Cantina with live music and dancing. At 8:30pm join the ghost walk if you dare and hear the tails of the haunted island. Guaranteed to shiver your timbers! 

On Saturday, June 16th, visit the pirate camps and pirate ships. Activities and entertainment all day long including a treasure hunt, building a pirate ship and school of the sailor where kids will learn to walk, talk and act like a pirate. The children’s costume contest is a great time to get that perfect pic of your little Buccaneers. End the evening with the pirates at a BBQ banquet so good you’ll walk the plank for its delicacies.  

On Sunday, June 17th, the weekend finishes with a pancake breakfast with the Pirates at Mojo’s. A pirate costume contest as well as pictures with the pirates will be the highlight of the morning.  

Whether you’re an Old Salt or a Landlubber, you’ll love the entertainment that the Pirates add to the island! Visit Bald Head Island during the Pirate Invasion and you’ll be saying “YO HO YO HO” throughout the weekend!
