Independence Day Celebration: Living History Day
July 4, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Celebrate Independence Day by bringing the whole family back in time—to July 4, 1776!
At Washington Crossing Historic Park, you can watch living historians demonstrate their crafts, tour the buildings in the Historic Village, and see a military encampment from noon to 4 PM on Sunday, July 4.
A highlight of the day will be readings of the Declaration of Independence at 12:30 PM, 1:30 PM, 2:30 PM and 3:30 PM.
Tickets are $8 for adults age 12 and over; $4 for children ages 5-11; and free for those under 5, active duty military, and members of the Friends of Washington Crossing Park. Families with up to two adults and two children living in the same household can purchase a single Family ticket for $20.
Capacity is limited for this event, so guests are strongly encouraged to buy tickets prior to July 4. Any tickets not sold in advance may be available to guests who walk up, but there is no guarantee that there will be tickets remaining.
All proceeds from this event support educational and historical programming in the park.
This event will be held rain or shine. Masks are not required for any guests.
