Celebrate Living History
June 13 & 14, 2026
The very first Sasquatch Days took place on May 23 & 24, 1938, drawing over 2,000 First Nations people from across Canada and the United States. Be part of living history as you join us on the shores of Harrison Lake, the traditional territory of Sts’ailes People on the ancient village site of Qwólts and attend our war canoe races, medicine walks and more.
We raise our hands to you in respect and gratitude for joining us for our 13th Annual Sasquatch Days, which is co-hosted by the Village of Harrison Hot Springs and the nation of Sts’ailes. This historic event aims to share Sts’ailes culture and traditions in this beautiful location on the shores of Harrison Hot Springs. As hosts, we are proud to endorse this event with the support of the Harrison Festival Society, Tourism Harrison and the many volunteers who make it possible. We are honoured for this opportunity to work together as one and put forth an amazing event for you!
