Step back in time with us at Wilder Days!

We are incredibly excited to announce a special feature this year: Old Town!

As part of the Old Town experience, we are proud to welcome the James River Mountain Man Association, who will be bringing history to life with live demonstrations throughout the festival.

Come see them in action and learn some incredible 19th-century frontier skills!

They will also have handcrafted trade items available for purchase, so you can take a piece of the frontier home with you.

We can't wait to see you in Old Town!
