Annual Reenactment in Puerto Rico
Friday, April 24, 2015 - Sunday, April 26, 2015
The 1797 British Invasion of San Juan is presented and hosted by the Regimiento Fijo de Puerto Rico
The annual recreation of this historical 15 day battle in Old San Juan is a wonderful opportunity to visit this beautiful, historic city and the majestic Castillo San Felipe del Morro while also supporting our brothers in arms in Puerto Rico. So, if you are able and looking for an excuse to hop off to this spectacular island paradise, put this one on your calendar.
Participants who arrive on Thursday will be treated to an evening wine and cheese welcoming reception at Casa de España. Free accommodations will be available in the Ballajá Cultural Center, formerly the Ballajá barracks. If you prefer to stay off site, there are lots of local apartment rentals to be found at reasonable rates. Most meals will be supplied at no cost to reenactors. Black powder will be provided by the National Park Service.
A $30 fee for the event is required if you are not a member of the Regimiento Fijo de Puerto Rico
