Back To The Point!

AVAST mates! The original, oft copied, never duplicated, NOLA Pyrate Week crew is back – straight outta history, and sailing up from the bayous of south Louisiana, back to Algiers Point once again, for FAMILY PYRATE DAY!

Join us Saturday, 5 April, 2025 from 10am – 3pm (merchant setup, 8am) for shantys & shenanigans! Merchants, music, treasures and revelry with our most excellent mates, Confetti Kids (and others) in a fantastic treasure hoard of a space, by the river, on POWDER STREET, called BARGEBOARD NOLA (that’s as perfect for Pyrates as ye get).

It’s also the 23rd annual “Treasures From The Point” epic community porch sale, so there be treasure to be found!

As always, we’re giving back, donations of non-perishable items for the local Food Bank accepted!

There are a few spaces for merchants (subject to approval) – we ask only a donation (min. $20 value) to Confetti Kids, the Food Bank, or both if ye like! Contact us below, be sure to describe your goods, provide a link to your website/FB/IG – or a link to see photos of your goods, and all contact info.
Keep in mind this is one day only, and ye need your own tent/table/chair. There MAY be some covered or indoor spaces, but we can’t guarantee it, so be prepared to be outside. Merchants are responsible for securing their own goods both during and after the market – all items, tents etc. must be removed promptly at the end o’ the day. There is no electrical hookup available. Parking along the road. Accommodations available a short drive away. Setup available 8am, event runs 10am – 3pm CST.

Tell yer mates, set yer sails, and make yer way to Old Algiers for a pointedly good time!
