About Ketchikan Gateway Borough Fair
The Ketchikan Gateway Borough Fair in Ketchikan celebrates the "Salmon Capital of the World" and the gateway to Alaska's Inside Passage — Ketchikan's extraordinary collection of totem poles, the Tlingit and Haida peoples' remarkable artistic heritage, and the town's Creek Street historic boardwalk district built over a salmon stream define one of Alaska's most culturally rich communities.
What to Expect
Expect community exhibits, Alaska Native cultural demonstrations, totem pole displays, local food vendors featuring Ketchikan's exceptional salmon and Dungeness crab, and the vibrant spirit of Southeast Alaska's first city.
Visitor Tips
Ketchikan's Totem Bight State Historical Park and the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center provide world-class Alaska Native heritage experiences. Creek Street's historic boardwalk brothels-turned-shops and Dolly's House Museum reflect the bawdy fishing port history. Misty Fjords National Monument's volcanic fjords and granite walls are accessible by floatplane.
