# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Burning of Jamestown
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 19 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Exactly one-hundred years before the Declaration of Independence, a group of rebels marched on Virginia’s capital and burned it to the ground in an attempt to depose a government they saw as elitist. Though the rebellion would fizzle after the death of its charismatic leader, Nathaniel Bacon, its impact would be felt in the courts, the further entrenchment of slave labor in Virginia, and escalating tensions between white frontiersmen and Indigenous people, rippling far beyond the 17th century to the American Revolution and today. “The Burning of Jamestown” is an immersive walking tour, led by merchant and planter Thomas Mathew, on whose land the rebellion was first sparked. This program is included with a general admission ticket to Historic Jamestowne.
