Lumberjack World Championships

The Lumberjack World Championships Foundation organizes an annual international competition and festival celebrating traditional timber sports and the athletes who practice them. Held at the historic Lumberjack Bowl on the shores of Lake Hayward in Hayward, Wisconsin, the event brings together lumberjacks and lumberjills from around the world to compete in sawing, chopping, speed climbing, log rolling, boom running, axe throwing, and other events. The championships highlight strength, balance, speed, focus, and technical skill, while offering an entertaining experience for families and spectators.

The organization provides event tickets, schedules, seating information, results, and an official event program, alongside live broadcasts and replay access for fans watching online. Its wider activities include a Lumberjack Run 5K, youth workshops and training in log rolling and boom running, and opportunities to volunteer, participate as a festival vendor, or become a sponsor.
