City of Wildwood Parks & Recreation and The Historic Baker House are excited to announce the upcoming Fall 2026 Baker House schedule.

The season will kick off in September with two classic historical tours led by costumed docents.

October will feature the newest Baker House murder mystery dinner show: The Cursed Castle. Baker House murder mysteries are a fan favorite and always quick to sell out, so for the first time ever, an encore presentation will be performed live on stage at Warfield Auditorium (98 S. Warfield Avenue). Later in the month, get into the Halloween spirit with the unparalleled Spirited Ladies and Gents tour.

The Baker House America 250 Veterans Day Celebration will be held in November, with FREE admission for all veterans, featuring a historic walkthrough highlighting the great achievements of our 250 year history.

Pre-registration is required for all events.

Tickets for all events will go on sale Tuesday, September 1, 2026, at 8:00 a.m.

Tickets may be purchased online by visiting https://secure.rec1.com/FL/wildwood-fl/catalog, in-person at the Wildwood Community Center (6500 Powell Rd) Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., or via phone by calling (352) 461-0134.

Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate the start of a new school year at our Back-to-School Extravaganza this past Saturday. We got to see so many smiling faces, and hundreds of students received backpacks, school supplies, and hygiene items to help them start the year with confidence.

This event truly showcased the power of our community coming together to support local families!

We would like to extend a huge thank you to all our sponsors, community partners, and vendors for participating in this impactful event. We also want to give a special thank you to our first responders at Sumter County Sheriff's Office-Florida, Sumter County Fire & EMS, as well as the Sumter County School District.

We wish all students a safe and successful school year!
