A memorable day for sure, me hearties!  All aboard The Hornet for adventure on the Seven Seas!

With lots of role play, dress up, pirate names , treasure maps, a fantastic backdrop of a pirate ship, hundreds of artefacts and objects including real pirate weapons, our Pirates -  Cap'n Will Jaggard & Purple Molly Malone,  will bring the fantastic world of pirates to life for your children.

From swabbing the decks to hoisting the Black Flag, singing sea shanties, teamwork is encouraged, and we encourage all children to come dressed up for the adventure ahead.

Find out about real pirates of the past, and compare them with modern pirates of the film world such as Jack Sparrow.

We can even shoot our black powder blunderbuss to round off the day if you wish!
