Get ready to drop in as Fernie Alpine Resort is excited to host the Jeep Junior Freeride!

This IFSA regional event showcases up-and-coming freeriders as they throw down their best lines in big-mountain terrain. This competition is designed for developing athletes looking to earn IFSA points, gain valuable contest experience, and take the next step in their freeride journey.

Riders will be judged on line choice, control, fluidity, technique, and style as they navigate natural features down a set run on the mountain. Expect high energy, progressive skiing and riding, and a strong community vibe as competitors push themselves and each other.

Whether you’re just getting started or leveling up your freeride skills, this 2-star event is the perfect opportunity to showcase your riding and join the freeride community. Spectators are welcome—come watch the action and support the next generation of freeride athletes!

The event is open to skiers and snowboarders 7-18yrs old in the following categories U12, U15 and U19.

Enjoy Family Day Weekend by night skiing on The Mighty Moose lift, with the slope lit up from 4pm to 9pm!

Ski under the lights and enjoy this fun experience with your family!

A Lift Ticket or Season Pass is required to access the lift and slope.

Your daytime lift ticket is valid for night skiing (on the same day), or night ski-only tickets are available at Fernie Alpine Resort Rental Shop.

*Please note:  Night Skiing will pause briefly at approx. 4:45 pm for 10-15 minutes while our cat crew freshens up the slope with a quick groom.

2025/26 Night Skiing Schedule:

Enjoy a weekend of fun, family-friendly activities!

There will be plenty of fun activities throughout the weekend for you and your loved ones to enjoy while on the ski hill.

Get ready for some friendly family competition! Whether it's racing your mom, cousin, or sibling, the Family Fun Race is all about having fun together on Sunday, Feb 15th.

Families can sign up to race down the course. However, unlike a traditional race, the families are tasked with guessing their combined time to complete the course. The winner is then the family that was closest to their correct time. The race will consist of a gentle slalom course open to most skill levels.

Get ready for the ultimate Reading Week celebration at Fernie Alpine Resort with Snow Dreams presented by Monster Energy!

This event brings together mountain adventure, booming beats and alpine energy.

We’re kicking things off on Tuesday, February 17 by warming up your vocal cords and unleashing your inner rockstar at Karaoke Night by Top-o!  Sing your heart out to classic hits or modern jams, and let the good times roll.

The main event lands on February 18 with the ultimate Snow Dreams party. DJ Cona kicks things off before passing it off to the night’s featured artist, SkiiTour. Expect high-energy music, electric après vibes, and a dance floor that never quits.

Before the party starts, answer the mountain’s call. Spend the day out on Fernie’s legendary terrain—whether you’re on skis or a board, there’s no better way to earn those après drinks.

Pack your bags and rally your crew. Snow Dreams is calling and this is one Reading Week you definitely don’t want to miss.

Skiers and snowboarders, get ready to throw down at the Fernie Alpine Resort Rail Park. This is your chance to showcase your skills, compete against your peers, and claim the top spot in your category.

After last year’s wildly successful mega-jam, we're bringing back the golden format - one big rail jam for everyone!

Snowboarders, this one is for you! We are stoked to welcome back the Dirty Dancer Banked Slalom.

Get back to your snowboarding roots with the Dirty Dancer Banked Slalom, a throwback to the '80s when snowboarders were the outlaws of the wild west, banned from most ski resorts and forced to fight for the right to shred! Well, times have changed, and we want you to celebrate by entering this awesome event for all ages.

While times count, this event is really all about hanging out with fellow snowboarders and celebrating the community. It's a chance to connect with fellow riders and enjoy the vibe of snowboarding culture. Whether you're racing for the podium or just there for the good times, it's about the experience and the people.

Get ready to dust off your neon spandex leggings, put on those classic retro snowsuits, and pull out your leg warmers for the most legit throwback weekend of the year! It's time to tease your hair to the sky, strap on your headband, and dive into a weekend packed with contests, parties, and non-stop retro fun.

It's a full weekend of retro vibes, so grab your friends, throw on your wildest gear, and get ready to party like it's 1985!
