Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show
Get all your rowdy friends together and join in the Alaskan axe-tion in this amazing competition of skill and strength. The Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show reflects upon southeast Alaska’s rich logging history and comes to life with thrilling displays of strength and agility. These world champion athletes wearing spiked boots & hard hats compete in 12 athletic events that utilize seven-pound axes, six-foot razor sharp saws, tree climbing gaffs, and souped up chainsaws. Your cheers will turn to roars of excitement as axes fly through the air, men free fall from tall trees, and then run atop spinning logs floating in the water. The show is held in a covered, heated, and cushioned grandstand that includes a rustic lodge gift shop and full concession. This will be one hour of action, excitement, and laughs that is unique to all of Alaska.

While looking out over the harbor filled with commercial fishing boats, watch as the daily catch is brought to the docks. Your meal includes salad with Asian style dressing, all-you-can-eat Dungeness Crab, baby red potatoes, and delicious carrot cake!

Great Afternoon!
Family friendly show is entertaining; the lumberjacks were definitely talented. That said, the star of the show was the crab feast... perfectly cooked, beverages included, all you can eat crab... what more can you ask for. Would definitely recommend (and for sure repeat on my next trip to Ketchikan)!

A Must

Not sure we would book this again
Although we had a beautiful sunny day in Ketchikan, the show itself is in a shaded although it was a warm sunny day in Ketchikan, the Arena was in the shade and it was so windy and so cold and uncomfortable. It really took away from the show. The show itself was fun to watch and seemed authentic with real lumberjacks. The crabfest afterwards was great.

Good bang for the buck
Was a good family fun event and I’m my opinion worth the price especially the all you can eat crab afterwards😋. The host and lumberjacks were entertaining and energetic despite it raining which made it that much more fun to be at. The lunch afterwards was delicious and the servers were very friendly and even taught everyone how to eat the crab. Would definitely recommend.

Entertaining and delicious!
We had an amazing experience. The Lumberjack show was very entertaining. The Jacks are very talented and funny. We enjoyed their humor. The Crab feast was spectacular! It truly was all you can eat. The crab was cooked perfectly and the potatoes were deliciously seasoned. The staff at both venues were very good. They were very kind and interactive with everyone. We will definitely come back again.
