4th Annual Saratoga Siege Weekend Moved to Fort Hardy Park, Schuylerville

Saratoga 250 and Saratoga County officials present Saratoga Siege Weekend, Saturday, October 11 and Sunday, October 12, a free family-friendly event celebrating America’s Turning Point & Saratoga County’s revolutionary past. 

Experience the revolutionary history of the Saratoga region with living historians and Revolutionary War reenactors at Fort Hardy Park in Schuylerville from 10AM to 4PM each day. Events previously scheduled at the National Saratoga Historical Park have been moved to Fort Hardy Park, which is the site of the British Surrender in 1777. 

This 18th century encampment brings the past to life, providing visitors with a unique window into the American Revolution through engaging demonstrations, historical reenactments, and immersive experiences that celebrate the Patriots’ victory at the Battles of Saratoga! 

Be a revolutionary recruit, take a draft horse ride, chat with Patriot and British soldiers and civilians, hear the blast of a cannon, see a traveling forge and watch a blacksmith fix the army’s tools, meet an author, check out replica 18th century sleds made by WSWHE BOCES students to commemorate Henry Knox’s Noble Train of Artillery 250th anniversary, play 18th century games, eat some ice cream (provided by Stewart’s shops on Saturday) and more!
