Small is Beautiful!!!

Pirates in the Port Festival is proud to support and be supported by some of Newport's finest and friendliest bijou, boutique venues!

Last year, you loved The Lamb and this year you'll love it even more as it's been taken over and totally refurbed - it's gorgeous!!! The Andrews will give you a warm welcome!

Also last year, Julie and Michael at the Continental Coffee Lounge and Greek Restaurant on Corn Street opposite the Potters were great cheerleaders for the festival! They served up delicious meals for their customers while small shanty groups played, and they'll be doing the same this year - book early to ensure you get your table!

Cakes and Cream just up the road and next to the Mercure are one of Newport's newest places to enjoy a drink and snack. They brew great coffee and their cakes are to die for! They are hosting bands on Sunday so check them out where Joanna will welcome you!

And finally if you fancy being serenaded from a balcony, then Newport Arcade is for you! Courtesy of Nikki at Arcadia Cafe, the festival will have bands playing from the first floor gallery, while you enjoy the varied retail delights in the Arcade (pop into see Dean in Kriminal Records for a great deal on excellent vinyl) and enjoy a coffee and lunch in Arcadia!

Here are the bands and timings for our small is beautiful offering!
