Take a guided tour of Muncie's largest landmark and meet the people who shaped our past locally and nationally.

Learn more about Muncie’s rich and fascinating history by taking a guided tour through a portion of historic Beech Grove Cemetery. Reenactors positioned along the route will bring local historic figures back to life!

Tours are approximately 1 mile, generally leave on the half hour and are limited to groups of 20.

Tickets can be purchased at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2025-historic-beech-grove-cemetery-tour-tickets-1671810924479?aff=oddtdtcreator or available to purchase at the Main Gate the day of the event until 6:30pm. Children under the age of 12 accompanied by an adult are admitted free.

Refreshments will be available near the fountain for guests as they wait for the tours to depart. Guests can test their fact-or-fiction skills by playing a round of Dueling Historians in the Chapel.

This is an outdoor, family-friendly event which does require walking a substantial distance and taking some steps on uneven ground. Accommodation can be made in advance for those who need them.

Should the event be postponed due to inclement weather, our rain date is October 12th and tickets will be transferred to that date (or, if requested, refunded). Eventbrite will, however, retain their fee. All ticket holders will receive an email (sent to the address provided to us) as early as possible should we move the event to the 12th.

Parking will be available across from the main cemetery gate. Please take caution when crossing Kilgore. Accommodation for those needing parking accessibility will be made.

This event is proudly brought to you by Old West End Neighborhood Association. Proceeds

will benefit the neighborhood and the cemetery Preservation Fund.
