BROOMFIELD, Colo., Sept. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- You don't have to buy an unlimited season pass to save big. Skiers and riders can lock in four days at iconic destinations including Vail Mountain, Whistler Blackcomb, Park City Mountain and Breckenridge for just $118/day or $471. For regional gems like Keystone, Crested Butte, Heavenly, Northstar and Stowe, a 4-Day Epic Day Pass is just $367 ($92/day). Or ski four days at local favorites in the East and Midwest for just $223 ($56/day).

With prices increasing after October 7, now is the time to lock in access and savings for the season – and decide later when and where to ski and ride.

Epic Day Pass Delivers Flexible Access and Big Savings
Know you'll ski and ride a few days this season, but not ready to lock in where or when? With Epic Day Pass, skiers and riders can choose between one and seven days, customize resort access to include their favorite mountains, and decide whether to include peak holiday dates. Epic Day Pass gives guests flexibility to ski and ride where they want, when they want. Savings increase the more days you buy. 

If you do want to ski or ride as much as possible, an Epic Pass or Epic Local Pass is the way to go.  With new savings for young adults, skiers and riders ages 13-30 can save 20%. Plus, all guests who purchase an Epic Pass or Epic Local Pass receive five Epic Friend Tickets, offering 50% off adult lift tickets and 25% off child lift tickets, making it easier to share mountain adventures with friends and family.

All Epic Passes include Epic Mountain Rewards, offering 20% off lodging, equipment rentals, ski and ride school lessons, dining and more.

New Ways to Experience the Mountains This Winter
This winter, The Snow League, founded by Shaun White, will make its highly anticipated Park City Mountain debut. At Vail, guests can experience Pop-up Mountaintop Music, an exclusive series of surprise performances by acclaimed artists that transform the mountain into an unforgettable live music venue. More events will be announced in the coming months.

There's no place like the mountains for the holidays, where snow-covered villages, festive traditions and shared adventures create memories that last a lifetime. From Northstar's Winter Wonders, featuring seasonal celebrations, live music and holiday cheer throughout the village, to Keystone's family-focused holiday experiences, including Breakfast with Santa, sleigh rides and New Year's festivities, guests can discover the magic of winter in unforgettable ways.

Nothing builds the anticipation to hit the slopes like Matchstick's iconic, annual ski film, and this year, Epic Pass is sponsoring its fall tour for the world premiere of its 2026 film, The Way Out, featuring Whistler Heli-Skiing.

Building on more than $2 billion invested in guest experiences and innovation over the past decade, Vail Resorts is continuing to elevate every mountain visit through its new Epic Experience growth strategy with significant investments in dining, lessons, gear, technology, and hospitality. Combined with marquee events and entertainment across its resorts, this winter will offer more ways than ever to experience the mountains, discover something new and create lasting memories.
