Celebrate America 250 in Ticonderoga!
Downtown Ticonderoga is preparing for a very special year as we celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary and continue one of our community’s most beloved traditions, the Best 4th in the North.
This year the celebration is expanding with the return of a full carnival midway through a partnership between NRDC and Amusements of America, one of the nation’s premier traveling carnival companies. This year’s celebration also coincides with major historic programming and world-class reenactments at Fort Ticonderoga, bringing visitors from across the region to experience the story of the American Revolution during this milestone anniversary.
