News
Welcome to The Enfield Pirate Festival. Members of the media with valid credentials are always admitted to the Faire at no cost when covering a story. These credentials include:
- Business Card: A valid business card of a regularly published periodical with a circulation greater than 5,000 or broadcast media with a reach greater than 10,000.
- Referral: A letter from an editor/publisher confirming your freelance status.
If you are unable to provide either of these documents but are able to achieve media exposure after paying admission, we would be happy to reimburse your entrance fee in appreciation of your support.
Visit Times
During regular faire hours there is no appointment necessary to visit for a story. Just stop at our entry gate and let them know you are with the media to have a staff member called to greet you. We’ll give you a quick tour of the Faire, answer any questions you may have and let you go to gather information for your story.
