Suquamish Tribe Hosting

Friday, July 28 & Saturday July 29, 2023

House of Awakened Culture | 7235 Pkwy NE, Suquamish WA 98392

Suquamish is the last stop before Muckleshoot. Muckleshoot is the final destination.

 

The Tribal Canoe Journey is a celebration of tribes from across the Pacific Northwest that travel from tribe to tribe, sharing songs and dances along the way, to end up at a final tribal destination for a week of sharing food, songs, dances and giveaways.

Suquamish is expecting over 100 canoes and 8,000 to 9,000 people for this two-day hosting. For those who are not participating in the journey, but would like to spectate, we ask that you respect and honor the event by giving people space and respecting the process. The very best way you can be part of this annual event is to volunteer and you can sign up here!
