Step back in time during a Revolutionary War encampment at Mount Vernon.

Mount Vernon’s serene 12-acre field transforms into a battleground as Continentals, Redcoats, and Hessians conduct military drills, demonstrations, and engage in 18th-century tacticals. Visit with camp followers and walk through a recreation of George Washington’s War Tent.

Revolutionary War Weekend is included with admission on May 3-4, 2025, and is free for Mount Vernon members.
