Upcoming Events

Greetings Stowe Lovers!

We have had some great blue bird spring skiing so far this week and conditions for the weekend look promising with a few chances of snow over the next few days! I am looking forward to the rest of spring and more spring skiing, but I’m also praying for another 3 foot storm.

Tonight, Wednesday, is the last torchlight parade of the season. At 8pm, Ski and Snowboard School instructors will ski and ride down Slalom Hill on Spruce with torches. The parade will be followed by fireworks. It’s a great event for everyone to experience.

Thursday is Saint Patrick’s Day, and in honor of that we have $39 lift tickets.

Saturday is the East Coast Super Shootout. Five Photographer Finalists and their athlete teams (skiers & riders) battle it out for the "Best in Show" Award presenting their action sports photography slideshows in a public presentation on Saturday March 19 at 7pm. Each team has three days to shoot at Stowe Mountain Resort and make a presentation of these photos in slideshows to original music. Attendees get to select the People's Choice Award.
Where: Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center
When: Saturday March 19 @ 7pm
Cost: $5
