Castle by Candlelight at Old Fort Niagara is December 18, 2021. Tickets are $25.
Includes a tour of the Great Lakes’ oldest building illuminated entirely by candles. Enjoy handmade natural decorations by the award-winning Youngstown Garden Club.
Throughout the Fort, visitors will encounter members of the Fort’s 18th century garrison demonstrating everything from quill pens to fur trading to traditional games of skill.
Twice each evening the garrison turns out to perform a grand feu de joie (firing of joy), a rolling fire of muskets and cannons. Cooks prepare a holiday feast, musicians play popular songs of the era and a Recollect priest reads the Christmas story in Latin in the Fort’s 290-year-old chapel.
