Season Passes

If you are renewing a 2023-24 Snowbird Pass, your 2024-25 pass can be automatically added to your existing season pass card.

If you are a new passholder or need a new pass card, you can quickly redeem your Summit, Kids Freeloader, Alta-Bird or Flex-5 Pass at the Pick-Up Boxes, conveniently located throughout the base area at all Snowbird's lodging properties, Creekside and the Snowbird Center. Get your pass now to head straight to the mountain on Opening Day. Learn more about how to redeem your new season pass in 2 easy steps:

  1. Scan the QR code from your printed confirmation or phone.
  2. Your pass will print and drop into the tray.

For Summit and Alta-Bird Passholders who purchased the Ikon Base Add-On Benefit, you will have until November 29 to complete the waiver and upload your photo to redeem your Ikon Base Add-On Benefit. The Ikon Base Add-On Benefit delivery will be fulfilled by Ikon. 

All 2024-25 season passes must be purchased online through pass.snowbird.com

If a season pass card is lost, there will be a $5 Pass Replacement Fee at the time of reprinting. Snowbird urges their passholders to hold on to their season pass year after year in an effort to reduce waste. If you have a 2023-24 Season Pass and renew it for 2024-25, access to lifts and the Tram will automatically load onto your existing season pass. Passholders will not need to pay the $5 Pass Replacement Fee at the start of the season and passes damaged due to normal usage will be replaced at no charge. Starting in 2024-25, passholders whose pass is lost, damaged or stolen will need to visit the Season Pass Office to replace their season pass card. Do not punch a hole in your pass as doing so will damage its capabilities at the gate. 

Lost Pass: Please report a lost pass to the Season Pass Office at tickets@snowbird.com as soon as possible. You are liable for any misuse while the pass is not in your possession unless you have reported your pass lost/stolen prior to the misuse. Lost passes can be replaced for a $5 Pass Replacement Fee.

Forgotten or Damaged Pass: If you forgot your pass or your pass is damaged, you can pay the $5 Pass Replacement Fee to obtain a new pass. Passes damaged due to normal usage will be replaced at no charge. Other damages will result in a $5 Pass Replacement Fee. Do not punch a hole in your pass as doing so will damage the RFID capabilities.

All active, retired and veteran Military qualify for a Military Summit or Alta-Bird Pass. Verification is required. 

Kids Freeloader Pass

The Kids Freeloader Pass is a free, unlimited pass to Snowbird for anyone 18 and under, linked to the purchase of a qualifying Summit or Alta-Bird Pass. Every 2024-25 Adult, Senior or Military Summit or Alta-Bird Pass comes with the option to add on a FREE Kids Freeloader Pass. No relation between passholders is needed.

Adult, Senior and Military Summit and Alta-Bird passholders qualify for 1 Kids Freeloader Pass per season pass purchased (valid at Snowbird only).

The Kids Freeloader Pass can be assigned to anyone (age 18 and under) with the purchase of an Adult, Senior or Military Summit or Alta-Bird Pass. The Kids Freeloader Pass is non-transferable and valid at Snowbird only. The adult and youth do not need to be related.

No, the adult associated with the Kids Freeloader Pass does not need to be present for the pass to work.

No. Snowbird recognizes that families and communities come in different shapes and sizes. By not requiring the Adult, Senior or Military Summit or Alta-Bird Pass associated with the Kids Freeloader Pass to be a legal guardian, we hope to support kids who get on the mountain with grandparents, aunts, uncles, family friends and more. 

The Kids Freeloader Pass can be added upon checkout of an Adult, Military or Senior Summit or Alta-Bird Pass. It can also be added later in the season by visiting the Season Pass Office by February 28, 2025.
