Killington Resort Launches Spring Pass and Announces Full Calendar of Spring Events

Vermont’s Killington Resort, the largest ski and snowboard destination in Eastern North America, is kicking off the spring season with the return of its Spring Pass and a packed calendar of events celebrating the longest ski season in the East. The resort also opened applications for its Community Mountain Support Fund, a program designed to help smaller ski areas across the Northeast invest in critical infrastructure.

“Spring is a special time here, and it’s a big part of what makes The Beast unique,” said Mike Solimano, President & CEO of Killington Resort & Pico Mountain. “Our teams work incredibly hard throughout the winter to build and maintain snowpack that allows us to keep lifts spinning longer than anywhere else in the East. When you combine those conditions with a full lineup of spring events and the energy that comes with them, it creates an experience you can’t find elsewhere. At the same time, we’re proud to support the broader ski community through our Community Mountain Support Fund, helping smaller resorts across the region invest in the infrastructure that keeps the sport growing.”

The 2026 Spring Pass is available for purchase now through the end of March 12th for $379, offering unlimited lift access to all skiers and riders from March 13th through the end of our season, which will continue as long as conditions allow. Starting March 13th, the Spring Pass will still be available for purchase until the end of winter 25/26 for $419. Every Pico, Midweek, and Ikon Pass holder can upgrade to a Spring Pass for just $199 at any time, and all Spring Pass holders can unlock up to a 40% discount on lodging during the rest of this season.

This season, Killington Resort is also offering a Spring Pass upgrade to winter 25/26 season passholders from Partner Resorts around the northeast. Passholders from select local ski areas in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island are now able to purchase a Spring Pass for $199. Eligible guests can visit killington.com/springpass to purchase and for full details.

Killington’s Community Mountain Support Fund, part of our Upward & Outward community engagement and sustainability initiative, is currently accepting applications from local ski resorts throughout the northeast. Funds allocated through this program will go to support community mountains with necessary infrastructure projects. Operational needs that are eligible to be addressed through this fund include lift maintenance, snowmaking infrastructure, grooming equipment, and more.

The funding totaling $200,000 for this program originates from two main sources. During the summer of 2025, the original cabins from our Skyeship Gondola were auctioned off, generating proceeds totaling over $150,000. The remaining $50,000 comes from generous support from the Killington World Cup Foundation (KWCF), an organization that has helped bring more than $2 million in resources to winter sports infrastructure in the region over the last decade. Applications will be accepted at this link through Wednesday, March 25th, with recipients being announced on Saturday, April 25th.

A $7 million investment in snowmaking infrastructure, including the installation of 1,044 new low-energy snowguns over the past two summers, has significantly expanded Killington’s snowmaking capacity and efficiency. Those improvements have helped the resort build and maintain a deeper, more durable base across the mountain heading into spring.

As detailed recently on Killington’s Insider Blog, the resort has been able to produce more snow while using less energy than in any recent season. As of Saturday, March 7, Leica LiDAR scans conducted by the grooming team indicate that sections of the Superstar trail currently hold as much as 35’ of snowpack, providing a strong foundation for late-season skiing and riding. If conditions allow, we will be offering lift-serviced skiing & riding into June, as well as hosting a multi-sport Memorial Day weekend featuring skiing & riding, golfing, and mountain biking.

Those spring conditions will also set the stage for a full calendar of events across the resort. Highlights of the schedule include the Bear Mountain Mogul Challenge on April 4th and the Pond Skim on April 11th. We will also host a couple of notable female-centered events, including the inaugural New England Women’s Demo at Pico Mountain on March 20th and the return of Love Your Peaks, a Boarding for Breast Cancer fundraising event on March 28th. In partnership with Michelob ULTRA, our Decked Out Days series will also return, this year featuring live DJ sets near our new Superstar Umbrella Bar.
