204th Anniversary – Battle of Fort George (2017)

Journey back in time with us (plus many other historical merchants & reenactors) at the 204th Anniversary of the Battle of Fort George, War of 1812 Re-enactment!

Sat. 8 July & Sun. 9 July, 10 am – 5 pm

As always, we will have the very best White Buffalo Sage, Minigan Salve, pelts, clay pipes, trade silver and other goods available for purchase at very reasonable prices (much better than either the Hudson’s Bay or Northwest Companies will offer)!

The merchant area outside the Fort walls is free to visit; a special event rate of only $4.90 per person applies inside the Fort for all the excitement of battle reenactments including authentic Musket & Cannon firing, music, presentations & more. Saturday night includes a special “Night Assault” Re-enactment at 8 pm!

For more information, call Parks Canada at 905-468-6614.
