Join us September 17–19 at the Ontario Regiment RCAC Museum for Aquino Tank Weekend!
 

This is your chance to see and hear your favorite real-life tanks in action. Take a tank ride, experience the thrill of soaring artillery fire (all safe and sound, naturally), and get a front-row seat for a live simulated tank battle!

Join Cmdr_AF, The_Chieftain, and more of the Austin Crew in Oshawa, Ontario. We'll be saddled with T-shirts and Codes for anyone who finds our crew.

I'm excited! I hope everyone is too

Hi TragicLoss and WG crew, got my weekend pass tickets all paid for and excited to see you and the many Ontario Players and Tank Fans at the main events. I have been to this weekend Tank Demo and Battle reenactment 5 times for the Plastic Model show that use to run at the same time but this will be the first time I get to hang around with some WG celebrities LOL. See you there and have safe travels. 

Sincerely Gen_Grant

It's been 2 years since the last Aquino event so we at the Museum are excited to have you all coming back for an "in-person" visit as opposed to a stream. Can't wait for you to arrive...safe travels!

Maybe give us who live 10 hours' drive away from the museum a bit more than, well, 5 day's notice.  Do so and maybe you'd see more people there.  Something like a month's notice would be nice.

Heyo! We've been working up until the line. With COVID restrictions, traveling to Canada has been an "if".

Our attendance has been the only thing up in the air though! Aquino has been set to run for at least a month or more.

News to me.  Last time I attended it was in June.

[Timachinima]

99% chance I'll be there!

Have you been watching the museum's website? It's not WG's job to promote events organized by other organizations. 

[FrozenKemp]

I'll be there!

Is any of the staff interested in learning more about the Archer? I kid.

[petester_1]

Will be there Sat.  Looking forward to it.

The Ontario tank museums websites ticket pricing is....  confused?   the button says 10-25 dollars for Saturday  and upon opening one can choose an adult ticket for 35 dollars not 25.....   or a battle bus ticket for 25 dollars,  or an APC ticket for 50 dollars, ...   with no explanation as to what the "battle bus" or "APC" are...  I am assuming  an extra fee for a ride ...   still the 10-25 dollars button leading to a 35 dollar admission is misleading...  so time to cut and paste this forum post and send it to the museum... subject heading BUGREPORT.

See You There. This will be the first time for me. Luckily only an hour away.

Have a blast Tragic, seeing them IRL is amazing .

Tickets were bought in May, hotel room booked, cameras (yes that is right plural) charged and SD cards cleared and prepped for picture taking, packing the bags tonight, creating the driving playlist with awesome tunes for the trip.  Excitement levels are rising as the weekend nears, just one more shift of work left, and then it is time for some TANKS!!!!!!!!!
