New Year’s Eve Fireworks at Grouse Mountain
On December 31st Grouse Mountain celebrates New Year’s Eve with fireworks. They blast off at 7:00 pm for the family-friendly show. It’s one of the biggest and best New Year’s Eve fireworks displays in Metro Vancouver. Five hours later, there’s the Pyro Musical at Midnight too.
There’s also a fancy dinner party for adults on Grouse Mountain. It takes place at The Observatory restaurant which is a popular place to be on New Year’s Eve. The event features a multi-course menu with seatings at 5:00 pm and 9:00 pm (the latter has sold out in 2025).
The dinner at the Observatory includes wine pairings and costs $195 per person (plus taxes and tip). It also comes with complimentary champagne for a midnight toast and admission to Grouse Mountain.
For those with families, there’s the New Year’s Eve buffet at the Timber Room. In 2025 it costs $59 for those ages 13 and up. Children under the age of 13 are $24.
For New Year’s Eve this year, the resort is offering special evening tickets at $39 that give you access to the mountain as well as skiing and riding after 8:00 pm. There’s also the Light Walk which starts at 9:00 pm and runs until midnight. The main New Year’s Eve attraction, however, is the fireworks which blast off at 7:00 pm and then again at midnight. Admission to the show is free for people with general mountain admission tickets, ski lift tickets and annual passes.
