New Auction and Raffle Item this Year!
Experience the beauty of the Ligonier Valley countryside the way travelers once did, with a leisurely horse-drawn carriage ride reminiscent of the 1800s. New this year, the Carriage Drive Auction & Raffle offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to step back in time and enjoy a peaceful, scenic journey through rolling landscapes and historic surroundings.
Carriage rides will take place on June 19, 20, and 21, 2026, with limited seating available for each outing.
Seats will be auctioned and raffled during Tastes of the Town on April 23. The raffle will continue through the Ligonier Valley Historical Society’s Annual Meeting where the winners will be drawn. For those unable to attend, sealed bids will be accepted up until the day before the event (April 22) for the auction, ensuring everyone has a chance to participate.
Don’t miss this exciting new addition that combines history, community, and countryside charm into one unforgettable experience.
