Fort Hunter Mansion and Park: Fort Hunter Day

Hosted by Fort Hunter Mansion and Park.

Welcome fall with a festival celebrating the old-time ways of life at our annual Fort Hunter Day celebration! Visitors will find arts and crafts, family-friendly games and activities, historic demonstrations and exhibits, live entertainment, antique cars and tractors, and even farm equipment from the collection that is not frequently seen by the public. Stop by the Friends of Fort Hunter bake sale or visit any of the food trucks for a delicious meal. There will also be live animals, hay wagon rides, and so much more!

The Fort Hunter Mansion will be open for visitors at a discounted entrance fee of $5!

Throughout the day, enjoy musical entertainment on the corncrib stage, in partnership with the Susquehanna Folk Music Society.

Through financial donations, volunteer work, and loyal patronage, the Friends of Fort Hunter help make the Park’s preservation possible. Their efforts have allowed for the restoration of key features of the Mansion and Park, as well as the development of new educational and recreational programs for visitors.
