BOOK ACCOMMODATION

The Big Halloween 2009 - Pirates Cove

This year for Halloween, Capital E sets sail for Pirates Cove. Come and join more than 4,000 other aspiring pirates and sea dogs and celebrate Halloween as Capital E and Civic Square are transformed into a wondrous Pirates Cove.

Shiver me timbers and caulk me barnacles if Capital E's Pirates Cove Halloween Party won’t be the most fun ye’s had in years! From the seven seas the pirates will come, hiding treasure as they go, trick or treat doors will creak, the voodoo princess hut will beckon and the floor shows and live music will entice.

From 4-8pm on Saturday 31 October, The Big Halloween: Pirates Cove will be a fully immersive and hugely enjoyable family experience. Get your pirate, pixie, witch and wizard outfits on and come prepared.

Greeting everyone at Capital E will be the Pirate Captain and his deranged parrot whose ragtag crew of shipmates will either lead you on a merry treasure hunt or make you walk the plank. There will also be a death-defying pirate adventure floorshow and sea shanties from the resident pirate band.

On entering Capital E everyone will have to brave the Voodoo Priestess Hut, with weird and wonderful displays and a collection of potion ingredients. Frights guaranteed…

The spectacularly spooky Pirates Cove will also spill out from Capital E and take over Civic Square, which will be brimming with exciting performers and attractions. For the courageous there will be fairground rides with lots of thrills and chills and a nautical-style obstacle course will be set up for pirates in training – crawl under the cargo net and test your balance on the beam.

And where would Halloween be without some mysterious Trick 
or Treat Doors – who will be behind them? Will it be the fairy princess, a caveman, or is it time to be met by the dreaded scary witch?

Capital E is famous for its fun and freaky Halloween celebrations. The Big Halloween is a much-anticipated family event, providing a safe way for young people and their families to get together and thoroughly enjoy this spooky night.

Remember: Dress scary and come prepared!
