Living History Programs: Each day during the summer months, park staff - dressed in reproduction historic clothing - provide interpretive informative living history programs for park visitors. The stories and facts they share bring the Fort to life and aid visitors in gaining a greater understanding of 19th century life.
Interpretive Programs: Interpretive talks, covering a variety of topics related to Fort Laramie's history, last approximately 30 minutes each and are held daily during the summer months.
Historic Weapons Demonstrations: Friday through Sunday, park staff will present a historic weapons program in the black powder demonstration area, north of the Visitor Center at 12:30 PM. Programs vary according to staffing but include demonstrations on the history and operation of the 1841 Mountain Howitzer or a discussion of the evolution of American military long arms.
The park's interpretive programs are available daily from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM. Please check at the Visitor Center for a daily schedule of program availability, topics, locations and details.
