Snowbird Lift and Tram Tickets and Passes
There's a variety of options to get on the snow at Snowbird, from trams to chairs, to a combined ticket with Alta. Here's the details for the pass or lift ticket you will need to get on the snow and start enjoying your day.
Snowbird Ski Resort Lift Ticket Types
From Beginners Lift to Upgraded Experiences
Snowbird has a ski or snowboard experience for every taste, from seasoned adventurers looking to test their skills to brand new beginners trying to get the feel of the snow. Lift tickets (except for the Chickadee only) also get you access to Snowbird's iconic tram, so you can access the full mountain on one pass or lift ticket. And you can upgrade for faster lift access, add guided experiences into the backcountry, or tack on a lesson or time at the spa to recover.
Season Passes
If your ski adventure includes multiple days, you may find the best deals by planning ahead to get a season pass. A variety of season passes are available and some include a free pass for skiers under 18. Their flex-5 pass, lets you pick any 5 days without blackout dates across the season. Snowbird is also part of the Ikon and Mountain Collective passes. You'll want to shop early because season passes are usually only available before the season starts.
Daily Lift Tickets and Ticket Packs
When season passes are not available, Snowbird still has a variety of options for savings. If you purchase lift tickets online more than 2 weeks in advance you will save off window pricing. And the variety is great too: choose from all day, half-day, or Chickadee (the beginner lift) only with discounts for military, seniors (65+), and youth 7-12. Kids 6 and under ski free, but do require a pass to get on the lift.
Salt Lake Ski Super Pass
If you're looking for the ultimate Salt Lake option, the Ski Super Pass is the option you want. Choose the number of days you want to ski, from 3 to 10, and then use the pass at any of the Salt Lake Resorts that you want to ski that day. At Brighton that means an all-day ticket with both day and night skiing! No blackout dates, no limitations, and it's on sale all season until April 1.

Salt Lake Ski Super Pass FAQs
Do I Need anything besides the Salt Lake Ski Super pass to access the resorts each day?
No. The Salt Lake Ski Super Pass is all you need to buy for access to one of the 4 Salt Lake Resorts for each day you have purchased. You will need to activate it at each day at Brighton and Solitude and verify it is active at Snowbird and Alta, but you do not need to purchase anything extra.
The only extra cost will be if you decide to upgrade to the Alta-Bird ticket to access both Alta and Snowbird on the same day.
