Be part of something Squamish loves

Squamish Days isn’t just a festival – it’s a tradition, a reunion, and a four-day burst of energy that lights up the community every summer. It’s thrilling, it’s loud, it’s hilarious, and it’s completely 100% volunteer-run.

From axe throwing and bed racing to pancakes, parades, and log rolling, the festival is only possible because of the 450+ volunteers who step up every year. Some have been doing it for decades. Some just signed up last year. Every single one makes a difference.

If you’ve ever attended the festival and thought, “This is something special,” we’re here to tell you: you’re right.
And if you’ve ever thought, “I wonder how I could get involved?” – this is your moment.
