Park City opening and closing dates

Expected opening: November 20, 2026. Expected closing: April 12, 2027. Opening depends on enough snow at the 2073 m base, so it can move a week or two either way; with a 3056 m top station, the upper mountain usually holds out longer than the base at the end of the season. Closing tends to be pushed to Easter when it falls late.

Park City's lift operating hours

Like most alpine resorts, Park City's lifts typically run roughly from 9:00 to 16:30–17:00, with the occasional night session on special dates. The exact daily schedule is published on the resort's official site.

When to book your gear

The two weeks around opening day, plus Christmas and Easter holidays, are when sizes and the better models sell out first in Park City. Booking with the opening date already on the calendar — November 20, 2026 this season — is the simple way to avoid being left with what's spare.
