Events Description
Join Crysler’s Farm National on Monday, April 8 from 1 p.m. – 4:30 p.m., at Battle of Crysler’s Farm National Historic Site, for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Witness the magic of a total solar eclipse with the St. Lawrence River as your backdrop.
In a total solar eclipse, the moon will completely cover the sun, creating a celestial spectacle visible from our historic grounds.
Immerse yourself in the science and wonder of this rare cosmic event that will last almost three minutes – one which only occurs every few hundred years.
Get free eclipse glasses, indulge in eclipse-themed music, tasty treats by food and drink vendors and hop on the beloved Miniature Train for an afternoon of fun.
Rain or shine, don’t miss this unique outdoor event! Limited seating, so bring your own chair. Upper Canada Village closed on April 8; opens May 4. Portable washrooms provided. Expect a 1km walk from parking to prime viewing spot.
