Raise your mask and ready your cutlass – The Swashbuckler’s Ball returns for its 14th grand celebration! On Saturday, January 17th, 2026, the Portland Elk’s Lodge #142 transforms into a Venetian dream of silken masks, golden lanterns, and high-seas revelry. Join pirates, buccaneers, and mischievous rogues for a night of dancing, feasting, and finery fit for the courts of Tortuga and Venice alike.
Featuring live entertainment from…
