War of 1812 Weekend Glengarry Pioneer Museum 2025

War of 1812 Weekend Glengarry Pioneer Museum
September 20 ~ 21, 2025
Dunvegan’s War of 1812 Weekend, bringing the War of 1812 to Life!

Living History Reenactors will be converging at the Crossroads of Dunvegan, Ontario to Immerse Yourself back to Upper Canada during the early 19th Century.

Living up to its name as one of the best kept secrets of the region, this 15th edition is the last big event of the 2024 season at Dunvegan’s Glengarry Pioneer Museum. All of the museum buildings will come alive as reenactors portray various aspects of civilian, business and military life in this region during the War of 1812 time period.

Surrounding the buildings, tented encampments will be scattered across the grounds offering
behind-the-scenes glimpses of military and civilian life. Tour around to see what’s cooking over
the fires, hear live historical music being played, pop into the one-room schoolhouse to meet
the school mistress, have your children take part in a children’s military muster. Trades such as blacksmithing, rope making, weaving, and leatherwork will also be taking place.

This event happens rain or shine, please dress for the weather and we ask that you please leave your pets at home. For event enquiries, please email event coordinator, 1812@glengarrypioneermuseum.ca or call the museum at 613-527-5230. More details can also be found at www.glengarrypioneermuseum.ca
