Vermont Business Magazine Vermont’s Killington Resort, the largest ski and snowboard resort in Eastern North America and a POWDR company, charges into spring with the NOR’BEASTER Spring Pass and a jam-packed event series as the longest season in the East extends towards Memorial Day and beyond. The 2019 NOR’BEASTER Spring Pass is available for $219*, providing skiers and snowboarders of all ages with unlimited spring skiing and riding from March 15 through June, or as far as Mother Nature will allow. The Spring Pass also unlocks access to live music, events and a 20% discount on Killington managed lodging beginning March 15 through the remainder of the 2018-19 winter season.
“There’s a reason The King of Spring calls Killington home. We’re known for soft turns, long days of sunshine and weekends packed with events and live music,” says Mike Solimano, president and general manager of Killington Resort. “We pride ourselves on hosting the longest season in the East and hope to stretch this season beyond Memorial Day on Superstar’s World Cup base while enjoying some friendly competition at events like the Hibernation Park Jam on March 30, Killington Triathlon and May Day Slalom.”
The Vermont Brewers Festival lands, once again, in Killington on March 23 featuring over 100 different brews, plus local food trucks and live music. April kicks off the NOR’BEASTER event line-up presenting the legendary spring rite of passage, the Bear Mountain Mogul Challenge followed by an event every weekend through the first week of May.
