The Captain Returns
William Shatner is back in the ADK for a weekend of all things Star Trek.
William Shatner
The Star Trek Original Series Set Tour in Ticonderoga will once again host the OG Captain Kirk from July 7 through 9th, 2023. If you’re not familiar with the Star Trek Set Tour, an enterprising super fan of the series managed to acquire the plans for the original Star Trek TV sets and rebuilt them in a former grocery store in downtown Ticonderoga, NY, and the rest is history.
The Set Tour hosts numerous events throughout the year featuring Star Trek luminaries past and present. These occasions feature a variety of talks and photo opportunities, along with a VIP dinner.
For this event, Star Trek production royalty Mike and Denise Okuda will also be on hand. Fresh off their contributions to Star Trek Picard, Mike and Denise will share a behind-the-scenes look at bringing the Enterprise D to life once more. Free with event general admission. Or join them on a tour and learn how the original Enterprise influenced the Next Generation. There will also be an opportunity to join Set Tour owner and creator James Cawley for an insider’s look at the Starship Enterprise.
