What a glorious night! Thank you to everyone who came out for The Swashbuckler's Ball X! By all accounts, it was one of our very best! We would be remiss if we didn't call out a few folks who helped to make the evening truly spectacular...
Our sponsors! Thanks to Cruzan Rum, Kells Brewery, The Heavy Metal Brewing Co, BG Reynolds and Cascade Coil for making this year's event possible!
Our entertainment! Huzzah to The Dread Crew of Oddwood, Coming Up Threes, Biddy on the Bench, Bergamot Burlesque, Bilgerats & Pyrettes and Arden the Fiddler for keeping the dance floors packed and the party going until the wee hours of the morning!
Thank you to Spectrum Acoustics and DJ Switch for providing a truly spectacular sound and lighting experience on both the Quarterdeck and Locker stages!
The Portland Beardsmen stormed the Gun Deck stage and hosted the wild The SwashBeard Facial Hair Competition at SwashBall X!
Tankards raised to the Elks Lodge #142 (Milwaukie-Portland 142 Events) and the intrepid crew of The Scarlet Dove. Without the constant support and hard work of these folks, this event simply could NOT have happened!
Special thanks to Amy, Kenton and the entire staff of Ticket Tomato for once again making our ticketing and check-in system run smoothly!
Our hard-working staff has earned their shore leave. A toast to them and everyone else who has supported the Swashbuckler's Ball over these past 10 years.
Thank you all for helping to keep this ship afloat!
Glad I finally made one and the hype was worth it. Some great pirate friends and tooooppp notch entertainment.
Always a pleasure. See y'all at the next one 😉
Two-thumbs up on the venue 👍🏼👍🏼 it had great parking, access, and use of space! Thank you to all of you who put this event together, you all put together a top notch Ball!
i have gone to every ball and i have had a great time at each one. but i think that this location is the best one we have had yet. good parking, no going up and down stairs to outside. lots of seating, and the ability to different things gaming, a bit of shopping, competitions,eating, and so much more. i really hope that the ball can be hosted here again!
My friends and I had a fantastic time! I'm already counting down to next year. I thought the elks lodge was a great space for the event.
Such a great time
I don’t know where the heck that critter came from

Behold! The first ever SwashBeard Facial Hair Competition, presented by the Portland Beardsmen.
Do you have a beard or mustache worth showin' off? Can you sculpt your facial hair into a kraken? Do you want to showcase yer skills by building yer own glorious beard? Sign up for the SwashBeard Facial Hair Competition!
The competition will take place on the Gun Deck Stage at The Swashbuckler's Ball X on January 11th. Competitors will be judged in one of these four categories:
The Captain's Beard – A full beard in all it's glory. Over six inches long from lip to tip. Moustache may be styled or not, but the beard must remain natural, with no styling product other than beard oil.
The Matey Beard – Like the Captain's, only smaller. Under six inches. Styled stache allowed. No styling product other than beard oil.
Swabby Stache – A truly dapper mustache. Hair more than an inch from the corner of the mouth must be shaved. May be styled or left natural.
Cabin Boy Creative – A freestyle where anything goes. Style your facial hair however you choose using any styling product. Lifestyle or genetics don't allow you to grow your own? No problem. You can create a beard of any style from any material you choose.
Pre-registration is live now and can be accessed here: tinyurl.com/swashbeard. Entry fee is $5 per category. You may compete in multiple categories!
All competitors must have an admission ticket into the Swashbuckler's Ball. Tickets to the Swashbuckler's Ball can be purchased via Ticket Tomato (www.tickettomato.com/event/6400) or at the front gate of the venue the night of the event.
I'd participate, but that would only generate another round of "Santa!"
