Unmissable. - We enjoyed a great 60 minutes of fun and laughter at the show, despite the heavy September rain and chill. The show must go on! 11/10 to Lasagne Joe, the presenter and the 4 incredible lumberjacks for their resolve to put on a brilliant show, despite the weather. Their power, stamina and speed were amazing. We all felt sorry for the Spruce Mill lumberjack who lost the log roll challenge and ended up fully immersed in the freezing water, but still stayed outside in his wet clothes to say bye to everyone. We booked direct with the venue and it was excellent value for money. I’d definitely recommend. Our number 1 Ketchikan memory.

Go throw an axe! - Very fun entertainment! Get there EARLY and get in line because it’ll be a packed audience! Our tickets included the axe throw challenge, which I thought meant we’d watch the lumberjacks compete in axe throwing, but it was actually US who competed after the lumberjack show! That was awesome! And those competing have a reserved seating section, so the whole experience was super!

Great Fun! - We had such a fun time at this show. The audience participation was fantastic, and of course, having Goofy there to get the show going was awesome for my 5yo granddaughter. We had a blast and left me with laryngitis the next day from all the cheering. Lol!

A Very Alaskan Experience - Such an Alaskan-isk experience! We threw axes (and made fools of ourselves), and then we went watched the experts who showed us how to really do it! The axe throwing was so much fun! We had no idea what we were doing, but that didn't matter because we had so much fun! And then we went and watched the Lumberjack Show, it was really, really good! Those guys really have it down to a science and wow and amaze the crowd with their skills!
