New Year's Eve Torchlight Parade
Join Us
Celebrate New Year's Eve in spectacular fashion at the first-ever Burning Glove Torchlight Parade! Join us on December 31st as our community lights up the slopes with a dazzling display of glowing torches, creating a fiery trail down Sundown. The parade begins at 6:00pm—a perfect way to enjoy the magic of the mountains as we ring in the new year.
For our younger guests and families, the excitement begins earlier with a kid-friendly LED-Torchlight Parade down the green Confidence run before the main event. The LED Torchlight Parade is open to ages 5-17 and their parents.
Bundle up, grab some hot cocoa, and make memories with us as we close out the year with light, laughter, and mountain magic!
