Join us as we travel back in time at the Redcoats & Rebels 250th Anniversary Celebration at Old Sturbridge Village! This exciting event commemorates the 250th anniversary of America's fight for independence with one of New England's largest Revolutionary War reenactments. Experience the sights and sounds of the American Revolution as hundreds of reenactors portray soldiers, artisans, and colonial families.
Participants will enjoy live battle reenactments, musket and cannon demonstrations, military encampments, fife and drum music, and interactive historical exhibits. There will be opportunities to speak with reenactors, learn about daily life during the Revolutionary War, and explore Old Sturbridge Village's historic buildings and grounds.
This unforgettable event offers a fun and educational way to celebrate America's 250th anniversary while experiencing history come to life.
