Watch: All the highlights from a sunny Day One of Pirate Festival on the Dock 2017
7 years ago
There was a seriously EPIC battle and some fancy sword-work at Albert Dock today as Pirate Festival on the Dock 2017 got into full swing.
We had a ball down on the waterfront today as mermaids, pirates and all manner of sea monsters paraded around the Albert Dock and took in some spectacular live action shows. Watch as our cameras take you into the heart of the Pirate Festival on the Dock to see the live battle, parade drummers, Mermaid of Black Rock and more.
The bets news of all is, you can do it all again tomorrow! Pirate Festival on the Dock returns tomorrow, Sunday 17th September 2017 with a full line up of brilliant family fun. Don’t forget to check out the Strong Woman, Betty (she can lift really big men!) and go make your own pirate balloon sword before tucking into some seriously tasty grub and listening to a band or two play some classics!
