Map Overview | |
“ | BLU has discovered that RED has purchased a shipment of fireworks for a show when the pier is completed. Taking advantage of the situation, BLU plans to escort a bomb cart to demolish a significant portion of the roller coaster using the fireworks to cover the inevitable explosion.
— Pier publicity blurb

Pier is a community-made, single-staged Payload map with 5 Control Points. The course starts at a base in tropical caves, and progresses through coastal communities, beaches, canals, and docks to an amusement pier with BLU's target, a wooden roller coaster.
If the BLU team is able to push the cart up the roller coaster hill at the end to trigger the explosion, the sky is filled with fireworks, which use sounds from the Summer Camp Sale noisemaker.
Pier was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
