Pirates of the Hudson

Gangs of blackbeards and beauties will be swashbuckling their way through Philipsburg Manor at this rollicking event brought to you by the team that produces Horseman's Hollow. Join us as boisterous pirates lay anchor in the Hudson and storm Sleepy Hollow. Musical pirates, gypsy sword dancers, and scallywags of all sorts will roam the grounds, ready to make you smile while secretly stealin’ yer gold. Kids can take part in the Pieces of Eight treasure hunt, wiggle their way into a pirate shipwreck, and learn to speak and act like a bloody pirate! Get scarred for life (well, for a day at least) at Lady Molly Roger's Tattoo Shoppe. Test your cannon shot capabilities and help take out the British in Davy Jones’ Revenge! Seize some booty in the Thieves Market, but watch out for the blimey pickpockets lest ye be buying your own back for twice the price! Feast on fabulous foods prepared by Tastefully Yours, and down pints of grog created by Captain Lawrence Brewery. Yo-ho-ho me hearties…It's a Hudson Valley festival like none other…Aarrrgh! All admissions are by timed ticket only. Admission: $16; $12 for children 17 and under. Members receive a $5 per ticket discount. Buy in advance online at www.hudsonvalley.org or call 914-631-8200.
