Irate Pirates! Mutiny on Conwy Quay!

The weekend of the 19th and 20th of May sounds like just another day in the calendar for the unsuspecting folks of the small market town of Conwy. But if you were nearby, chances are you'd hear the boom of the cannons, see people dressed as up, see odd looking ships in the harbour and hear nothing but 'ARRRRRRRRR!!!!' because for the first time ever, Pirates took over the town for two action-packed days.


Slave auctions, barrel rolling races, best dressed competition (win your own weight in beer!), magic shows, smugglers market, storytelling, and firing cannons are just a few of the delights that were taking part across the whole of Conwy for two days. But don't just take word for it, I took a few shots on Sunday, and had a whale of a time! Next year I'll definitely be dressing up!
