Festivities kick off with a live DJ performance to hype the crowd up for the NYE Freestyle Invitational, featuring a special build at the base to showcase Sun Peaks' local talent. Stick around and spectate the Kids Glow Stick Parade as they set forth to glide and glow down lower Sundance before the iconic torchlight decent. The entire Sundance ski run will come alive with an iridescent red glow as skiers and boarders ride down with lit torches for the famous Torchlight Parade. The grand finale culminates in a breathtaking Fireworks Show, illuminating the stunning mountain backdrop.
The best spectator location for each event is just outside the Village Day Lodge at The Base Area, between the Sundance and Sunburst Express Chairlifts.
See you there to celebrate the start of 2025!
