The fun does not stop for 24 hours at Grouse Mountain from February 17, 2018 – February 18, 2018 during the annual 24 consecutive hours of winter fun at the Peak of Vancouver!

Started during the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, Grouse Mountain will remain open for skiing, snowboarding, and other events from sundown to sunrise. The event will kick off on Saturday at 8:00am and will run until 10:00pm on Sunday with a variety of round-the-clock activities including all-night skiing, snowboarding and ice skating; ziplining; live DJs; a hockey tournament; dining and much more.

The 24 Hours of Winter celebration will take place from Saturday morning to Saturday night and will include a wide array of family-friendly activities, including:

Light Walk (Dusk-10pm, Saturday & Sunday): Walk among the fir and spruce around Blue Grouse Lake where stunning light installations bring radiance to the winter night.

Sliding Zone (noon-8pm Saturday & Sunday): Get your snow sled rental…and slide! Snow level and weather permitting.

Theatre in the Sky (9:30am-9:30pm Saturday & Sunday)

Ziplining (12pm-5pm Saturday and Sunday. Tours leaving at 12pm, 3pm, 4pm, 5pm) Please book through Guest Services. Rates apply.

More events and activities will be released closer to the date of the event, and depending on weather conditions. But, in previous years, the event has included a snowshoe grind mountain race, a scavenger hunt, yoga sessions, and a torch parade.
