Buckeye Lake Pirate Fest
The Buckeye Lake Pirate Festival will officially open at 5 pm Friday on May 17, 2024 with a special Pirate Fest Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to open the Pirate Marketplace (and be open until 8 pm) featuring local officials, area business owners, celebrities, and special guests in attendance. Following the Friday Ribbon Cutting ceremony entertainment will feature live music by Sparky Brewer.
The Pirate Marketplace will feature 60 vendors and free family & children’s entertainment throughout the day. As a special attraction the Northern Exposure Landship (Ripley's) "World's Tallest ArrVee" will be 'docked' in front of the Pirate Marketplace and offer pirate themed clothing and other items.
The Pirate Marketplace is located at the Harbor Community Center at 5312 Walnut Road, Buckeye Lake, Ohio. It has been renamed to PORT ROYAL during Pirate Fest. A portion of the Marketplace Tradeshow proceeds will benefit the non-profit Harbor Community Center.
On Saturday, May 18, 2024 there will be a Pirate Treasure Hunt by Land & Sea. 40 local area businesses are each offering Treasure Chests that will be filled with special prizes valued at $150 or more. Adults may register to win a Treasure Chest at each location as they work their way around to visit and enjoy local area businesses: many of which will offer special entertainment for the day, and most will be sporting pirate themed attire.
Special Treasure Hunt Maps for the day will be available at Port Royal and 40 participating businesses (while supplies last). The Treasure Maps show destinations that may be reached by ‘Sea’: that is to say – they may be visited by watercraft on Buckeye Lake. All Treasure Hunt destinations are listed on the Land side of the map.
