Sasquatch. Big Foot. C’iatqo. Do you believe in this wild, hairy being? Whether you are a die-hard believer or an open skeptic, the place to go for all things Bigfoot is the annual Sasquatch Summit at Quinault Beach Resort and Casino. Taking place November 22-23, this Bigfoot research conference is one of the largest in the world and may even make a believer out of you.
The two-day event is full of guest speakers, vendors, workshops and lots of information. You can ask questions, or if you are a witness, share your story in the witness townhall. They will cover everything from the Sasquatch’s habitat to identifying authentic versus fake tracks. The Sasquatch Summit gets bigger every year and stands out from other Bigfoot conferences by providing many different sides, theories and research regarding the hunt for Sasquatch. And all are welcome, whether you believe or not: “We wanted a broad representation that covered the many credible views with the varied research, techniques & theories so guests would have as much information possible and make up their own minds.”
Get your tickets early to ensure entrance to the Sasquatch Summit for just $40. Those looking for a more in-depth encounter can purchase the Sasquatch Summit with Workshop tickets for $100. These tickets give you access to the two-day Summit as well as special workshops on Sunday. These workshops will be hosted by Dr. Jeff Medrum, Scott Taylor and one more host to be announced.
Everything kicks on Friday with a meet ‘n’ greet and a talk by Thom Cantrall and witness testimonies. Pursue the vendor hall both days and fill your bag with Sasquatch swag.
