Canton Civil War Days

Canton Civil War Days will take place on the western edge of Canton adjacent to Bridge Road. The more than 20-acre site features an open field for battle reenactments performed by reenactor groups based out of Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota. Spectators can expect to feel like they have been brought back in time as they walk through the camps, visit with soldiers, and are taught a living history. They will experience the sound of cannon fire as crews exercise their guns during the battle scenarios. Other activities include food vendors, a Civil War dance on Saturday night and morning church on Sunday. Gates open at 9 a.m. on Saturday and close at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday.
