Be A Pirate For One Night On A Giant Indoor Galleon In Orlando, Florida

Ever since Robert Louis Stevenson wrote about Treasure Island and the exploits of pirates and buccaneers, the theme of swashbuckling pirates has been an attraction for people of all ages. If you would like to go back in time and experience the adventure of the pirate era, then the Pirates Dinner Adventure Show should be on you must-visit list the next time you are in Orlando.

Unlike some dinner shows, this one is for families and it has been hailed as ?the world?s most unique interactive dinner show.?

Guests are entertained with an astonishing display of special effects wizardry, aerial artistry, swashbuckling swordplay, dynamic duels and daring-do; a classic story of good vs. evil that offers the perfect blend of action, adventure, comedy and romance; the opportunity to interact in the adventure; and a sumptuous dining experience. The show is perfect for children and adults alike.

Each night one hundred guests are invited to take part in the show and don colorful pirate-era costumes. The show is celebrating its 10th anniversary in the past ten years it has hosted all kinds of groups including, corporate outings, off-site convention parties and even school field trips.

Pirates dinner adventure show is conveniently located one block from Orlando?s famous International Drive, minutes to the Orange County Convention Center, and 15 minutes to Orlando International Airport.

The attraction features an astonishing display of special effects wizardry combined with amazing aerial artistry, swashbuckling swordplay and dynamic duels. The show is staged on a full-sized authentic replica of an 18thCentury Spanish galleon afloat in a 300,000-gallon lagoon. Daredevil pirates dangle from 50 and 70-foot tall masts, delighting the 825 voyagers in tiered seating ? each with the best seat in the house due to the theater-in-round design.

At Pirate?s Dinner Adventure, everyone time-travels to the 1800?s when pirates ruled the high seas and a man?s wealth was determined by the swiftness of his sword. Visiting the King?s Festival in the old seaport village, voyagers feast on a mouthwatering assortment of hors d?oeuvres served in honor of the King?s daughter, Princess Anita. Colorful entertainment abounds as Raddo ? the Gypsy King ? plus an exotic assortment of characters from snake dancer to fortunetellers, vie for our guests? attention.

However, the fun is interrupted suddenly. The merriment subsides when something goes terribly wrong: a band of wayward pirates descend upon the village to pillage and plunder, prompting a fierce swordfight which ends with Captain Sebastian Black kidnapping not only the beautiful Princess Anita, but every single one of the King?s guests as well.

As the drama unfolds, the ?kidnapped? voyagers dine on their ?final? meal, one that is fit for a pirate or king. The meal begins with an appetizer selection and a fresh salad, followed by a main course of marinated chicken served with a choice of finely roasted, seasoned pork or shrimp with lobster served in a butter garlic sauce, the Captain?s favorite West Indies yellow rice teeming with Caribbean seasonings. Steamed fresh vegetables round out the meal, with a warm apple cobbler a la mode dished up as a perfect ?just dessert.? Caribbean coffees, chilled beer, soft drinks, and vegetarian meals are available, and the little tikes in the bunch may dine on the Captain?s ?Kid?s? meal -- if the Captain approves.

After dinner and a climatic pirate battle, guests are invited to meet the stars of the show and ?get up close and personal? with the cast for photos and autographs. And, the fun doesn?t stop there! Pirate?s Dinner Adventure includes a complimentary Buccaneer Bash Dance Party after the last show of the evening. The disco party zone features a DJ, sound and special effects system, and dancing to a wide variety of music, from classic tunes to current hits.

The attraction caters to groups through a variety of amenities and services, including priority seating; secure parking and tour bus loading zone; corporate buy-out programs that offer flexibility and customization; theater-in-the-round seating; tour operator incentives; and team-building events, along with a dedicated group sales team. Special group rates and packages are available by calling 1-800-866-2469, or by visiting at www.piratesdinneradventure.com.
