The 8th Annual Mill-Luck Salmon Celebration is coming to Coos Bay September 10-11!  This event, held each year at The Mill Casino, is one of our favorite events occurring each year on the Southern Oregon Coast.

The free weekend event is the perfect experience for the whole family and features Native American art, food and music, canoe races, cultural exhibits and demonstrations, children’s games & activities and a Native American marketplace. Entertainment will include daily performances by storytellers, drummers, flutists and dancers.

You may also purchase tickets to the traditional salmon bake dinner (highly recommended) and/or an evening of entertainment with the Pow Wow Comedy Jam.

The celebration began as a means of sharing the heritage, culture and traditions of the Coquille Indian Tribe and other Pacific Northwest Tribes with residents and visitors to Oregon’s Bay Area. Now in its eighth year, the event attracts Native American artisans and musicians from throughout the Western United States and Canada.

The celebration is open to the public and will take place at The Mill Casino Hotel & RV Park on Saturday and Sunday, September 10-11 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tickets for The Pow Wow Comedy Jam are $18 per person with an $8 discount for Millionaire$ Club members.

Tickets to the  popular Salmon Bake dinner (served from 11a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday) include a commemorative tee shirt, are just $17 for children 12 and under and $25 for adults with a $5 discount for club members. Call 800.953.4800 for more info!
