I bought the $20 general admission ticket which is actually a tour includes a 15min movie and 30min guide sharing the culture and walking us through the exhibitions. The staff are all Lil'wat nation people, it is quite an amazing experience to learn more about their beliefs and lifestyle.

This was a fantastic place to visit! If you have some down time and are looking for something to do definitely check it out. Learning about the history and people of the area wonderful. The art and craftsmanship of all the pieces was amazing. The gift shop is full of little treasures and I was able to pick some beautiful art to take home.

A great way to spend a couple of hours in Whistler learning more about the history, rich culture, and beautiful creations of the First Nation peoples of the region. It also has a very nice cafe (I recommend the Salmon Chowder and Bannock) and gift shop.

Our wedding was spectacular here at the SLCC thanks to Taylor and the team! We were so thankful we were able to have our special day where we could have Canadian roots a part of it! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS VENUE FOR WEDDINGS!

West Coast history and culture!I have been regularly coming to Whistler to visit the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre. It’s a beautiful space that exemplifies the unique culture found in this area of the world. The food at the cafe is a must! My salad was graced with wild fresh morel mushrooms.I highly recommend this place as a cafe, museum, and art gallery. With 300+ First Nations in Canada it is a wonderful way to introduce visitors and residents a like to the Squamish and Lil’wat nations.

Nice cultural building, exhibits are well presented with a small outdoor path to walk and learn. It is a short visit but you got a film and a guided tour. Would have love to see live totem carving but due to the Forest fires, it was suspended. If you want to do an arts and craft activity, you should book it in advance online as they are short staffed and it could not be available on site.

I enjoyed learning about how the Squamish and Lil’wat peoples lived in the past and live today, with continuing their beautiful traditions. Amazing artistry—it was very cool to see a bit of the wood carving process. I look forward to my next visit.

If you’re visiting Whistler this should be the top priority before you go on to enjoy being uninvited guests on the territory. The guided tour was incredible. The tour guide was phenomenal and our family learned so much. The brief chat about reconciliation was so important and moving. So fortunate to have had this experience - thank you.

I'm Scottish and initially had limited knowledge about the history of this place. However, after spending two weeks exploring the area, I came to realize the significance of developing a deeper understanding of the history of these lands. This location provides an exceptional opportunity to do just that, offering a captivating collection of pictures and fascinating local artifacts. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting this place to anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of the region's history. Many thanks for the memorable experience!

Lovely gifts. Fantastic house-made lunches at the cafe are very reasonable for this splendid quality. Overall, a great experience. The admission is prohibitively expensive, however. These admission prices should be reduced, in order to encourage more visitors to benefit from the opportunity to listen and learn. A federal government subsidy should be sought reduce the admission prices, which are preventing people from visiting this venue. I can't afford it, myself, but I ate twice at the cafe, which is very reasonable, and I happily patronized the lovely gift shop, which has some merchandise of great quality. I will go again for lunch at the great cafe.
