The BPF Rules
We be an easy goin’ crew at the Brixham Pirate Fest, but there are some general rules of thumb we’d like ye all to adhere to savy?
- Please Keep the town tidy! There be plenty o’ bins with regular collection over the festival, use em! Keep our wonderful port clean for the next pirates!
- If ye carry a sword, make sure it be peace tied! The local constables will be keeping an eye out for loose swords, so it best be kept tied to your scabbard to avoid any entanglements with the law! (LARP, Foam and Toy swords are fine)
- Our cannons be loud! Check the map for an idea of firing times if you be sensitive with the hearing so ye can get some distance from the harbour during our displays of glorious firepower!
