BRINGING YOUR
TROOPS TO GETTYSBURG
FUN IN NUMBERS
Gettysburg has been a group destination since the troops marched in back in 1863. We promise you’ll have a lot more fun making your Gettysburg history than they did!
Groups today enjoy taking in the Civil War history with hands-on experiences, guided tours and living history presentations. Beyond the battle, our student tours are excited to add in orchard tours to learn about our fruit industry as well as having a little fun with a round of mini golf and ice cream in the evening after a day of learning. Adult groups are mixing it up with vineyard tours and tastings of our hard ciders, brews and spirits.
Many of our tour groups are taking in events and stage productions to
add entertainment in with their history experience. All of our visitors are having fun and
making their own history.
If you have a group that you want to bring to Gettysburg,
let us know. We are always excited to help a group plan their itinerary and find new
ways to experience the destination.
MEET ME IN GETTYSBURG
While travelers have been finding their way to Gettysburg long before the American Civil War, many are still learning what a great place it is for meetings. With unique venues, including museums, wineries and amazingly restored barns, your next meeting or event will
stand out in Gettysburg.
In 1863, great leaders met here
and changed the direction of
the American Civil War. Today,
corporations and government
organizations bring their executives
to leadership development seminars built around the Battle of Gettysburg and the many tough leadership decisions that needed to be made. President Eisenhower, who lived in Gettysburg twice in his lifetime, has also inspired leadership development programs offered in Gettysburg. These programs incorporate classroom and battlefield elements to provide opportunities to take your team to the next level.
Gettysburg and Adams County offer the perfect elements for a successful gathering. Our destination
is easy to access and affordable. With both traditional and non-traditional lodging and venues, we can assist in building the event that is the right fit for your audience. Let Destination Gettysburg be your partner.
