His Majesty's 62nd Regiment of Foot
2020 event schedule
Because we prefer to honor the historical context of each event we attend, we do not always portray soldiers of the 62nd Regiment at events. Instead, we do a variety of living history impressions which are reflective of the history each event commemorates.
NOTICE: Due to continuing health and safety concerns related to the Covid-19 pandemic, all 2020 living history and reenactment events have been cancelled. We look forward to returning to the field in 2021!
