Walk through British and American camps, listen to generals planning strategy, soldiers swapping stories around campfires, and women wondering what fate has in store for New Orleans. Over 100 living history experts share stories of the War of
1812, fire cannons and muskets, and bring the era to life. Also check out the Kid's Camp where the little ones can make pirate and military hats, play period games, and try on military uniforms. End the day with lunch or dinner at Rocky & Carlo's Restaurant. The kids will love it!
