  • Food vendors and family-friendly activities

Admission is free, though a parking pass is required; you can also park outside the state park and walk in.

Few places are better suited to celebrating America's history than Old Fort Niagara, a site that has played a significant role in our nation's story for more than 300 years. This promises to be a memorable evening for families, students, and community members of all ages.
