What is a LARP?

A LARP, or Live-Action Role-Play, is an immersive experience where participants portray characters and enact scenes within a shared narrative. It allows us to leave our normal everyday life behind and together we step into another world. This only works if everyone is on board, fully committing to their roles and the story.

Our LARP is set in the Golden Age of Pirates, so please avoid talking about modern inventions, such as phones or TVs, to maintain the authenticity and magic of the era. The event will be held in English and beginners are welcome. We’ll guide you through this adventure where you can be a pirate, uncovering treasures and navigating curses!

Rules

Our rules exist to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere.

Opting Out

If you need to withdraw from any activity during the LARP, you can do so by placing your hand over your heart, signaling your choice to the other participants. Additionally, an opt-out room will be available on-site, offering a space for you to decompress, take a break, and stay hydrated.

Clothing Guidelines

We request that all participants attend dressed as pirates. Your outfits can be simple, including items such as a white or striped shirt, a vest or jacket, and a pair of trousers. Enhance your look with accessories like bandannas and scarves to fully embrace the pirate theme. Feel free to go all out if you have the perfect pirate outfit. Please note that no weapons (fake or otherwise) or sharp objects are allowed.

Alcohol Restriction

While alcohol and intoxication will be portrayed during the LARP, no real alcohol or intoxicated people will be allowed. If you bring alcohol or try to enter intoxicated, you will be removed from the premises.
