Epic Pass and Epic Local Pass discounts for young skiers, riders
Vail Resorts is doubling down on accessibility with new pricing for Gen Z and young travelers. Skiers and riders, ages 13 to 30, can now purchase the 2026/2027 Epic Pass and Epic Local Pass for 20% less than standard pricing.
Teens and young adults can score up to $220 in savings, with Epic Pass launching at $869 and Epic Local Pass at $649. All passes for next season are on sale now at the lowest price of the year.
To celebrate the social side of skiing, Epic Friend tickets are back for a second season. Eligible 2026/27 season-long Epic Pass holders who purchase early will get 10 Epic Friend tickets. These 50%-off lift tickets are a popular way for pass holders to share a passion for the mountains with friends and family all season long. Pass holders can also use Epic Friend tickets for 25%-off child lift ticket prices.
For guests ready to make the jump from a lift ticket to a pass, Vail Resorts is offering another way to save. Eligible skiers and riders who visited any of the company’s 37 North American resorts with a lift ticket during the 2025/26 season can save up to $175 off the price of select Epic Pass products. With the new pricing, that means teens and young travelers (ages 13–30) could lock in an Epic Pass for as low as $694 or an Epic Local Pass for just $474.
