The Pirates of the High Seas & Renaissance Fest is setting sail from October 6-8, 2023!

The annual event celebrates the legacy of the pirates who once roamed the Gulf of Mexico and pillaged the Emerald Coast, telling the tale of Dominique Youx and his krewe of loyal buccaneers through staged pirate battles and storytelling. 

Pirate fans can enjoy online and in-person activities, including a digital pirate costume contest, an in-person and online treasure hunt, parades, live music fireworks, Renaissance vendors and activities, and more in Panama City Beach.

We hope you can join us, matey!
