Join us for the 40th Spring Carnival!
This winter, we are pulling out all the stops to celebrate 40 years of skiing, adventure, and community with the return of a nostalgia-packed 40th anniversary Spring Carnival.
From 26-28 September, skiers, snowboarders, and mountain lovers are invited to join the festivities, featuring family-friendly activities, retro ski vibes and on-mountain action.
The Remarkables Spring Carnival used to be a staple in the mountain’s event calendar until 2014.
The carnival will pay tribute to The Remarkables’ rich history, from its humble beginnings in 1985 to its status today as an iconic ski destination.
