Arizona Snowbowl Launches $10 Lift Tickets for 2025–26 Season

Arizona Snowbowl announced today that lift tickets for the 2025–26 winter start at $10, the lowest price point since the resort implemented demand-based pricing. Prices will rise over time under the resort’s demand-based system, which rewards guests who purchase early.

The resort’s pricing model is designed to deliver the best deals to early buyers and encourage visitation on non-peak days with deep discounts, helping balance demand and improve the on-mountain experience. Snowbowl's open-ended, demand-based pricing model has no limits, unlike many resorts that set ticket price floors. Guests who plan ahead and target off-peak dates can get lift tickets starting at $10, while prices for popular holidays, snowstorms and peak weekends are set based on demand.

“Ticket prices can be a barrier to those who would otherwise love to try skiing or snowboarding,” said Angie Grubb, marketing manager at Arizona Snowbowl. “With low priced tickets, free skiing for kids, and new upgrades, we’re making Snowbowl more accessible and memorable for locals and visitors alike.”

Snowbowl’s ongoing investments in snowmaking have made it possible to extend the season, with last winter marking its earliest opening on record, November 8, followed by a record-setting 185 skiable days. Arizona Snowbowl’s 2025–26 season is scheduled to begin Nov. 21, weather permitting.

2025–26 Season Highlights

Snowbowl has made several improvements designed to enhance the guest experience, including:

• Improved terrain options with tree glading along the Arizona Gondola lift line, including White Lightning, Flat Iron, and Casino trails.

• Earlier and longer seasons on Humphreys’ Chairlift thanks to upgraded snowmaking.

• Guest experience improvements, including a new rental fleet, improved Wi-Fi, and upgraded point-of-sale systems.

Snowbowl’s Power Kids Pass is the only season pass in North America that provides unlimited free skiing for kids aged 12 and under, with no purchase required and no blackout dates.

Guests who purchase tickets in advance during select days (holidays excluded) will also receive Bowl Bucks — a $10 daily resort credit redeemable at Snowbowl-owned restaurants, retail shops, and ski school.
