Join us for fun day of authentic battle re-enactments and encampments in rural Dighton, MA! Witness the re-creations and lifestyles of a 18th century style encampment while touring the camps. Come and see soldiers and camp-followers demonstrate 18th century skills, crafts, drills, music, cooking, and get an up-close view of an 18th century style battle. There’s no better way to appreciate and celebrate the 250th anniversary of our nation! Camps are open on Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and on Sunday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Battles are held on both Saturday and Sunday at 1:00 PM, but feel free to come early and leave late. Perfect for historians, teachers, and students. This is a FREE, FAMILY-FRIENDLY event to the public, hosted by the Town of Dighton and the 13th Continental Regiment. 18th Century period vendors, and modern food trucks will be open to all throughout the day.
