The Pods are swimming to North Carolina.
Join the Carolina Merfolk Festival, where Merfolk gather to celebrate our inherit connection to the water with a weekend of swimming, dancing, and even some swash buckling.
Our Fin Frenzy will be taking place this Summer on August 15th and 16th in Lake Lure NC.
Join the Merfolk Crew!
Events don’t function without people willing to be involved.
Join the Crew and be part of the magic!
All Crew members get a free Mermaid Pass as part of their compensation.

We’re now accepting Mermaids, Pirates, and Fae who want to be part of the magic as Ambassadors.
Ambassadors participate in our marketing program to bring more people into the magic.
Merchant!
The skilled hands of the Merchants that create our tools of the trade allow us to be truly magical.
If you have wares that fit the theme, please fill out the application and join our market.
Instructor!
Merfolk spend a lot of our lives as teachers and storytellers.
Whether it’s about professional mermaiding, how to advocate for our waterways and oceans, or how build a particular piece of costume. Let’s get you a class to spread your knowledge.
Performer!
We’re now accepting Mermaids, Pirates, and Fae who want to be part of the magic as Performers.
Walking NPC’s, Musicians, comedians, dancers. If it’s mermaid, pirate, or water themed. We want to see it.
An application is not a guarantee of acceptance, and we do prioritize local talent.
Volunteer!
New to the mermaid world but would still like to be involved?
We welcome you to sign on as a volunteer, you get the equivalent of a Mermaid Pass for just a few hours of work.
Staff!
We’re currently welcoming more Staff to our team.
The tasks are numerous and the work unpaid, but without people to organize and coordinate, this event falls apart.
Prior experience is welcome but not required.
Meet the Merfolk
We look forward to introducing you to our partners in the Pod.
These are the faces that make this event possible.
