By the flicker of candlelight, Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site hosts a costume party for the history books! Join us on October 25 for the 5th annual Sinister Soiree.
Dance the night away to live music and DJ sets, embark on a haunted walk through the reconstructed town, be entertained by buskers in the streets, and enjoy creepy stories by firelight. Take a peek into your future with a tarot card reading or get in touch with someone from your past with a medium. Do all this and more as you explore the historic streets. Costumes are encouraged, and a variety of drinks and food items will be available for purchase throughout the site.
