Local legends. Rising stars. One adrenaline-fueled afternoon.

More thrills-per-dollar than anything else in town.

The Saturday Loggers Sports Show is where locals compete for cash and glory, where tomorrow’s champions are tested, and where you get up-close action without the Sunday crowds.

Saturday’s show is fast-paced, family-friendly, and the most affordable way to fall in love with live logging sports in Squamish.

This show is the starting ground for loggers sports competitors – where they hone their skills, push their limits, and earn their way up the ranks. The vibe? Welcoming, intense, and wildly entertaining. Come cheer them on.

The Rotary Beef BBQ Sandwiches

Only available inside the showgrounds – while supplies last

Don’t snooze! They sell out!

You haven’t truly experienced Squamish Days until you’ve had a Rotary beef bun. This sandwich is a 50+ year tradition and a festival staple – featuring smoked outside round roasts, sliced hot and piled onto a soft brioche bun. Add your favourite toppings and dig in.

  • Smoked on-site over alderwood by the Rotary Club of Squamish
  • Served starting around 12:30 PM
  • Only available during the Loggers Sports Shows (Saturday & Sunday)
  • Admission ticket required to purchase a sandwich

Buns are sold first come, first served – and they always sell out. With smaller Saturday crowds, this is your best shot at grabbing one without missing the action.
