![]() NPS Photo / M. Tessier It is 1797, the Rendezvous is in full swing, and over a thousand people work and linger within the palisades and surrounding area. North West Company agents, clerks, and partners gather to conduct business and celebrate their good fortune. They arrive by canoe with the voyageurs bringing trade goods from the east, and furs from the north. Native American families gather by the shore to trade and reunite with friends and family, all right here in Grand Portage. During Rendezvous Days, costumed interpreters reenact 18th century life of the fur trade era. Park rangers and volunteer reenactors provide you with a unique view into the hustle and bustle of Grand Portage over 220 years ago. Rendezvous Days 2023 ProgramThe Heritage Center, stockade, reconstructed buildings, and historic encampment are open to the public from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm
