The Surprise Attack! Nighttime Battle Reenactment
On Saturday, witness the alarm of the British Garrison at Ticonderoga as the American surprise attack dramatically unfolds. Watch as the Green Mountain Boys led by Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold rush into the fort with war cries and screams of “No Quarter!” Listen as British Officers try to buy time and reason with the American rebels. See the tension between Revolutionaries Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold as they each try to assert control. What will happen to the soon to become British prisoners of war? See for yourself in this stunning recreation of America’s first victory at the very place where it happened 245 years ago. Gates open at 7pm (last ticket sold at 7:45pm) and the reenactment will begin at 8:00pm. Tickets can be purchased in advance.
