New Year’s Eve Fireworks at Grouse Mountain
On December 31st Grouse Mountain celebrates New Year’s Eve with fireworks. They usually blast off at 9:00 pm, but exact details for 2025 to be confirmed. It’s one of the biggest and best New Year’s Eve fireworks displays in Metro Vancouver.
There’s also usually 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 5:30 pm and 9:15 pm, at least that was the case last year. This year will likely be similar, but with exact details to be confirmed.
The dinner at the Observatory includes wine pairings and last year it cost $195 per person (plus taxes and tip). It also came with complimentary champagne for a midnight toast and admission to Grouse Mountain.
For those with families, in the past there has been a New Year’s Eve buffet at the Timber Room. Last year it cost around $59 for those ages 13 and up. Children under the age of 13 were just $19.
The resort’s regular skiing and snowboarding activities on December 31st typically run from 9:00 am until 10:00 pm. On that day, the Light Walk starts at dusk. The main New Year’s Eve attraction, however, is the fireworks which blast usually off at 9:00 pm. Admission to the show is free for people with general mountain admission tickets, ski lift tickets and annual passes.
