Pirates in the Port Festival Map

As we have kept adding new venues (by popular demand) over the last few weeks, we thought it only fair for you to have a new map showing where all the 52 bands will be playing over the weekend!

So here it is.

For those unfamiliar with Newport City Centre, the festival hub is at venue 1, The Corn Exchange, which is at the top of High Street, directly opposite Carpenters, McCanns and Le Pub. The hub will feature bands playing from 11am till 10pm on Saturday, and 12 till 6 on Sunday. There will be festival programmes on sale (£3) plus gorgeous and unique festival t-shirts (£15), and other Pirate merch - plus free drawing materials for kids.

At the Riverfront on Kingsway (about 7-8 minute walk from the Corn Exchange) there are Pirate-related craft activities for children going on in the foyer - all free.

In between these 2 there are 16 great venues where wonderful hosts will welcome you in free of charge to hear your favourite bands. Full performance details in the programme and also on the website.

The Market Upstairs will be our Folk Hub with a wide range of (literally) toe-tapping acts from the Newport and multinational folk scene.

So where's that map, you ask. It's here (see below) and also on the Getting There tab on the website.
