Pirates in Mallorca! Adults might be alarmed by the news, but children will be delighted. And they're right — the Adventures of Pirates, held in Magaluf, is a fun show for all ages. The action takes place in a hall resembling the deck of a ship, with exciting duels, acrobatic stunts, comic acts, fire shows, dancing and a fireworks display.
The Pirates of Mallorca has been a success for 30 years. There is original music, special effects and beautiful sets. The action takes place on board a 12-metre ship, and the main intrigue of the show is the fight for the treasure.
But why the most famous pirates of all time have gathered on the largest island in the Mediterranean, you'll only understand during the show. Francis Drake, Captain Blackbeard, Barbarossa and their dashing crew demonstrate pirate prowess: desperate courage, agility, resourcefulness, and the ability to fight and have fun. They're so charming; you might forget where they got all that treasure.
The Pirates Adventure show lasts about two hours. You can dine on a pirate ship before the show begins by purchasing a special ticket. Children will receive a chocolate treasure dessert when they buy tickets to the Quarterdeck area and a pirate armband when they buy tickets to the VIP area.
In any case, you should take your seats well in advance: before the show starts, the performers walk around the auditorium and won't a child be proud to be winked at by a pirate? This unusual entertainment in Mallorca is memorable because the actors involve the audience in the game. During the show, you can shout, whistle, stomp, applaud and generally express emotions in every way — and there are usually plenty of them.
You can also buy a souvenir from the Pirates Adventure shop to keep the memory of what you've seen. If you want to explore all the sites of interest in Mallorca in a matter of days, the pirate show can be combined with a visit to the Katmandu theme park.
