Mont-Tremblant will host Ski Season Opening Day on 26 November 2026, marking the official launch of the resort's 2026-27 ski and snowboard season in Mont-Tremblant, Canada. The event will take place at the base of the Express Gondola, where the resort plans a morning programme for the return of winter.
Ski Season Opening Day starts on 26 November
The operator has scheduled Ski Season Opening Day for 26 November 2026 from 8am to 9.30am. The location is listed as the base of the Express Gondola at 1000 Chemin des Voyageurs in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec. The official event listing describes the morning as the launch of the 2026-27 season.
The programme includes a red-carpet welcome, music, activities and skiing on the mountain. The operator says visitors can join the first runs of the winter as part of the event. That places the date at the start of the resort's published winter operating period rather than in the middle of an established ski programme.
Mont-Tremblant links the launch to its ski terrain
The mountain summit reaches 875 metres (2,871 ft), while the ski area covers 309 hectares and contains 103 trails on four sides. Those figures give the 26 November launch a clear physical setting: the event begins beside the gondola that connects the pedestrian village with the mountain skiing area.
Tremblant's ski history reaches back to the first chairlift installed in 1939. The municipal history of the resort records the opening of the first lift and Mountain Lodge in that year. The current launch therefore connects a fixed 2026 date with a ski operation whose documented local history spans more than eight decades.
The mountain's layout also explains why the opening event is centred at the Express Gondola rather than at a separate town venue. The gondola base is at the resort address, while the slopes, trails and lift network extend above the village on the mountain.
What the 26 November launch means for visitors
For travellers from Western Europe, the concrete change inside the period is the transition from the summer season to the announced 2026-27 ski season. The operator's current event page names the date, venue and programme, while the resort's mountain information identifies the terrain that the opening introduces visitors to.
The first morning is presented as a public resort event, with music and activities alongside skiing. The listing does not describe a private reception or an invitation-only programme. It also does not establish that every trail or lift will operate on 26 November, so visitors should distinguish the launch event from the wider terrain available on the day.
