Reenactment of Paul Revere’s Midnight Ride in Midvale

On Saturday, April 18th, 2026, the Village of Midvale and the Midvale Methodist Church will be presenting a reenactment of Paul Revere’s Midnight Ride that alerted Samuel Adams and John Hancock that British troops were marching to arrest them and to seize militia supplies in Concord. This event will begin at Midnight on the square in Midvale near the Methodist Church, representing the Old North Church, where  two lanterns will signal Revere that the British were approaching by sea! Midvale residents will have candles in their windows to help alert the minutemen! After the ride, the Midvale Methodist Church will be having a brief late night Worship Service to commemorate the historical significance of this event as part of our nation’s 250th birthday celebration!
