Gettysburg National 19th Century Base Ball Festival

Gettysburg National

19th Century Base Ball Festival

An old time baseball festival featuring various clubs from all over the country playing by the rules and customs and using the same style equipment and uniforms from 1864. A family oriented, event which takes place the 3rd weekend in July featuring the civilian side of life in Gettysburg in 1864 and not the War.

Come see baseball the way it was played in its formative years with 19th century base ball clubs from all over the country converging on Gettysburg to show how base ball was played throughout the 19th century from 1839 to 1899. Fun for the entire family.
