Anchorage Pirate Fest - Sept 13, 2025

Anchorage Pirate Fest has thrown a net out to encompass all things Pirate, nautical and Mermaid here in Anchorage. Our Day time activities and vendors are family friendly and we welcome creatures above and under the sea to the fun!!!

 2 pm - 10pm PIRATE COVE: Activity and skill games for the kids to participate in from 2pm to 6pm. Help them earn their Pirate Degree if they complete all the tasks - fit for Pirates, Cabin Boys and Girls, Mermaids and Mermen of all ages. Visit our pirate vendors and purchase that accessory for your garb  or pick up something for your own Pirate Cove back home. Don't miss out on the Pirate Cove as it truly becomes magical as the light fades and the lanterns come on at night.

7pm - PIRATE PUB CRAWL: Arrive in Town Square a little early and get your pub crawl swag, maybe a last minute trinket for your costume and then watch as Town Square fills with all sorts of sea creatures. 7pm we will kick-off the night by joining fellow crews for a photo, then set sail for for all the pubs/ports of call. 

TO PARTICIPATE: Yes it is  free to participate. Pick up a MAP  in Town Square or at the first pub you visit - complete the map and turn it in at the last pub you visit and get entered in to a drawing for 80,000 Alaska Airlines miles.  Don’t be left on the dock, when there is piratical fun and adventure to be had. 

DONATE  & SAVE A LIFE:  A portion of all the funds raised over the day and night will be donated to the Blood Bank of Alaska to help you and your fellow Alaskans in their moment of need.
