Indy Pass announced today they will be adding 50 resorts to their season pass offering for the 2026-2027 season, expanding their total number of locations to over 300 worldwide.

The Pass which has been sold out since last spring, further said they will sell a limited number of passes to people on the wait list. Starting at 10 AM ET today, Indy opened pass sales to limited numbers of contacts on the wait list. If you are on the list and did not receive a notice yet, it may happen on a rolling basis. They also may open a short window for public pass sales on September 8, depending on how many passes remain. Last year that window was open for 37 minutes before passes sold out.

The timing of this news coincides with other pass sale dates, making this a big decision week for skiers and snowboarders to finalize season-long ski plans. Anyone considering going Indy should join the wait list at the link below for their best shot at securing a pass.

United We Ski
The 26/27 Indy Pass offers 2 days each at 300+ independent ski areas across the US, Canada, Japan, Europe, and South America, plus 25% off your third day. Go Indy!

About Indy Ski Pass

The Indy Pass connects independent ski areas across 4 continents, North America, Europe, Japan, and South America. Pass holders can enjoy 2 days per season at each location and a third day at a discounted rate. The 300 resorts are primarily alpine ski areas but also include nordic options.

Additional pass perks include discounts for lodging, allied partner resorts, and cat and heli-skiing partners. For most winter enthusiasts, there are 2 levels of downhill passes to choose from: the Base Pass with blackout dates and the Indy+ without blackout dates. Additional options are available if you already have a full season pass at one of the Indy resorts, or want a cross-country only ski pass.

Indy has focused on the independent resorts and a mission to preserve those areas, while keeping skiing affordable. They limit pass sales, as a focus to not overcrowd their partner mountains.

Pass Sales with Key Dates This Week

Epic Pass raises rates on their season pass products September 7. The wide range of pass options will still be available, but at a higher rate.

The new Snow Pass and the Snow Triple Play go on sale September 8. That date also opens a limited-time opportunity for their lowest price of the year before rates go up. If you missed their announcement last week, you can read about it here.

If you've not made a decision on a season pass for 2026-2027, it's time to choose your alliance(s). If Indy is on your radar and you are not already on the wait list, joining that now is your best option to potentially unlock access to their 300-resort roster this year.
