Pirate Bay Mirror Sites & Proxies

A Pirate Bay proxy is a mirror site that serves the same content as thepiratebay.org through a different domain, letting you reach TPB where it is blocked by ISPs or governments.

The mirrors listed here are health-checked regularly for uptime and SSL support. Still, always use an ad blocker and pair any downloading with a VPN - see our VPN for Torrenting guide.

Copyright holders petition ISPs and courts to block TPB domains. Each block usually spawns new proxy and mirror domains, which is why working lists like this one are updated continuously.

An automated health checker tests every mirror on a fixed schedule and records status, response speed and SSL state, so the list reflects live availability rather than guesses.

Pick any mirror marked online from the list above and click through - no setup required. If every mirror in your region is blocked, a VPN routes around ISP-level blocks entirely; see our VPN for Torrenting guide.

A proxy or mirror forwards your requests to thepiratebay.org and returns the same pages from a different domain. Your ISP only sees the mirror's address, which is usually not on block lists, while the content you browse stays identical.

Speed depends on where you are and how loaded a mirror is, so we re-measure it continuously. The Speed column ranks mirrors by recent response times, and the uptime and latency figures next to each mirror show their 30-day track record so you can pick a consistently fast one rather than a one-off winner.

A proxy is enough to browse when a site is blocked, but it does not encrypt your traffic or hide your IP from peers. For downloading we recommend a VPN - our VPN for Torrenting guide explains what to look for.

The terms are used interchangeably: both serve The Pirate Bay's content from a different domain. Strictly speaking, a proxy forwards your requests to TPB while a mirror hosts a copy of the site - for everyday browsing the distinction rarely matters.

Sites branded "thepiratebay3" are among the many mirrors and clones that appear whenever TPB domains get blocked. Availability and trustworthiness change constantly, so treat any specific thepiratebay3 domain with caution and prefer a health-checked list like the one above.

Not necessarily - for casual browsing, any online mirror from the list above is enough. If you want a private, unblocked route to TPB on every device instead, follow our step-by-step guide. Set up a Pirate Bay proxy server →
