Festival Passports
This year - due to Town Park being under construction, the Gananoque Pirate Invasion had to be relocated to Joel Stone Park. This meant we were no longer as close to our partnering downtown businesses that are such an important support for the festival. To try to correct for this - the $2 Passport and free Horse-Drawn Trolley have been created - support this initiative by using them!
Passports are $2.00 for each admission, and are available for purchase at the following locations:
- Festival Site
- Boat Museum
- Robeson's Restaurant
- On the Horse-Drawn Trolley (see map with stops below)
Horse-Drawn Trolley
Circling every 30 minutes, the pirate trolley is the best way to enjoy what the festival has to offer and the downtown core! Park downtown in one of the many free areas and then take the free trolley, courtesy of our sponsors, to the festival site in Joel Stone Park while listening to a pirate story-teller recount many a story of swashbuckling adventure!
The trolley stops are (see map below):
@ Festival Site
2) Town Park/Laverne's
3) African Treasures/Maple Leaf Restaurant
4) Mega Dollar/Linda's Boutique
5) Service Canada (Charles St.)
Use the Trolley to get to our key Passport Sponsors to get a stamp on your passport and enter to win one of 13 prizes, each valued at over $50! See info below.
