Ring in 2026 in Snowmass with the New Year’s Eve Torchlight Parade!

Due to current mountain conditions, New Year’s Eve fireworks in Snowmass have been canceled. The Torchlight Parade will still take place at 6:00pm on Fanny Hill, and guests can take in the sight from the Snowmass Mall and Base Village. Registration for the Torchlight Parade is now full at 250 participants.

Close out 2025 with the New Year’s Eve Torchlight Parade on Fanny Hill. Skiers and snowboarders ages 8 and up are invited to join in the fun making wide turns down the mountain with LED torches that illuminate the night sky and snow with a festive glow.

Where: Snowmass Base Village (Ski/Snowboard participants begin loading the Village Express chairlift at 5:30pm.)
