First time to visit?

Here are some frequently asked questions that may help you plan for an amazing day:

Will this be your first time attending Living History Weekend? If so, you might have a lot of questions about what is allowed at our event. Never fear! We want to ensure that our event is safe and fun for the whole family, so we answered some common questions here:

Where do I park?
Parking is FREE at Santa’s Wonderland’s Prancer Lot. From there you may either take a 10min walk to the Museum’s gate, or take our free shuttle! If you have a handicap tag, you may park at the museum’s parking lot as well.

May I bring in outside food or drink?
Yes! We want everyone to stay safe and hydrated, but please leave the alcohol at home. We do not recommend bringing large coolers, so make sure everything can fit in a purse, bag, or backpack. If you don’t want to carry around lots of items, we will be selling food and water at various locations all day.

Is everything handicap or wheelchair accessible?
We do our best to make our event as wheelchair friendly as possible. Our indoor facility is 100% wheelchair accessible, though be aware that our living history camps and displays are outside on potentially uneven or muddy terrain (depending on the weather). We hold our reenactment on a hill at a distance from the rest of the displays, but we provide rides to and from this location to seniors, expectant or new mothers, and those with disabilities.

What should I bring or wear?
Most of our activities are outside, so wear comfortable clothing and shoes that are suitable for walking on dirt and grass. We recommend a hat and sunscreen, and potentially a rain jacket or umbrella if rain is in the forecast. Don’t forget your camera for pictures and extra spending money!

Can I pay in credit?
This year, we will offer the ability to purchase tickets ahead of time online with a credit card (details to come soon). Otherwise, at the moment we can only accept cash at the gate, though our gift shop and select stations accept card. We also highly recommend cash to shop at our vendors’ booths as well as for some activities.

Will there be seating at the reenactment?
Yes! We will have bleachers, though seating is limited. You may bring a chair if you want, but be prepared to have to carry it for long walks.

Will the reenactment be loud?
Yes, we simulate real gunfire and explosions, so there will be quite a bit of noise. We will have earplugs available for purchase at the site, but you may also wish to bring your own. Be especially aware that the noise may upset infants and young children.

Are pets allowed at the event?
Yes, if they remain on a leash and are well behaved. We also ask that you clean up after their potty breaks, as no one likes tracking poop!
