With the World still in pandemic pandemonium, the only safe bet for Aussie skiers is go local – it’s set to be an epic season downunder for all of us who missed out up top and the best deal to get the best of it is the Epic Australia Pass.

Vail Resorts have announced February 23rd as deadline day to get yours for just $AUD 49 upfront. After that you will need to pay full freight upfront and price will rise from the current $899.

That’s for unlimited riding at Perisher, Hotham and Falls Creek. And for 21-22 up north a heap more options most or all of which should be back on the menu by then.

“We are incredibly excited for the 2021 season and can’t wait to welcome our guests back to the mountains we all love,” said Pete Brulisauer, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Vail Resorts Australia.

“There is immense appetite to get back to the snow, and we are thrilled to be able to offer our loyal guests unparalleled access to Perisher, Hotham and Falls Creek, as well as to resorts in Japan, Canada and the U.S. for a truly unbeatable price.”
