New Year's Eve at Sasquatch Resort

Sasquatch Resort is a ski hill not far from Harrison Hot Springs in the Fraser Valley. On December 31st it hosts a Torchlight Parade and New Year’s Eve Bash.

In this article you’ll find information about the ski hill’s New Year’s Eve events. You’ll also learn a little bit about the ski resort itself.

TIP: Harrison Hot Springs is only about 43 km from the ski hill, so less than a 50-minute drive in good conditions. The resort town consequently makes for a good base if you want to stay in the region overnight. Also, during the Christmas season, there is Lights by the Lake which is a free holiday lights attraction along the waterfront at Harrison Lake. Be sure to check it out too if you’re in the area. This year, Lights by the Lake runs from November 22nd, 2025, until January 11th, 2026.

NYE Torchlight Parade at Sasquatch Mountain

In 2025, this event happens on December 31st from 6:00 until 10:00 pm. It costs $125 to participate and the event begins with a ride in the Snow Cat (the grooming vehicle) to the mountain’s summit. Once everyone has arrived, there is a firework display around 9:00 or 9:30 pm. Finally, there is the parade itself where skiers and snowboarders are given a torch. Together they then ski down the hill to illuminate the snow on camera.

While attending the parade, participants have the chance to enjoy hot chocolate, snacks, and distant views of the valley far below.

New Year’s Eve Bash at Sasquatch Ski Resort

The party at Sasquatch Ski Resort for New Years Eve in 2025 begins at 4:00 pm and continues until 1:00 am on January 1st. Entry to the event is free and it features a live performance by DJ Booky at Molly’s (the restaurant) to bring up the energy. The night features a couple more festive options that aren’t normally available. Among these are the extra food, fireworks, drinks, and champagne toast as the clock strikes midnight.

It is important to note that while the event itself is free to attend, the ski hill is still charging admission (as one would expect). Consequently, you will need to pay if you want to ski or snowboard and take advantage of the full ski hill.
