75 Years of Sierra Anniversary Weekend Celebration!

April 9, 2022 - April 10, 2022 All Day Event
To pay homage to our history while setting our sights on the future, we are OPENING the resort for ONE WEEKEND ONLY on April 9-10 2022, to reflect and reconnect — together with your fellow Sierra family members. Share in the experience of what makes this place so truly unique + special with live music all weekend, competitions, giveaways + so much more. Subaru WinterFest will kick off the weekend celebration on Saturday followed by Vans METHODOLOGY on Sunday to round out the fun. After a year of unforeseen events and unknown obstacles, we are ecstatic to welcome passholders, ticket holders, and all those who love Sierra back to the place #WherePlayReignsFree.
We are setting our sights on a full opening next winter, as skiing and riding will be very limited throughout the weekend, but smiles, high fives + good vibes will be in abundance and that is truly what this anniversary event is all about!
With a little luck, sunshine will be on tap with spring conditions + a chance to see the mountain for the first time, so grab your favorite Sierra swag, carpool with your crew and come catch some special celebratory turns with us as we toast to 75 Years of Sierra. We’ll see you there!
