Ski Dazzle 2026 — Los Angeles Ski Show & Snowboard Expo

About this event

Ski Dazzle returns for its 63rd Los Angeles edition as a three-day, public ski-and-snowboard season kickoff at Magic Box Event Campus in Downtown L.A. The current show combines more than $3 million in advertised ski, snowboard and winter inventory at discounts up to 70 percent with western-resort and travel exhibitors, boot and gear specialists, clubs, winter-safety resources, beginner instruction and hands-on attractions. The current exhibitor guide names Mountain High, Snow Valley, Mt. Baldy, Palisades Tahoe and other mountain partners and now advertises ten 2026/27 lift-ticket offers. Free show-floor activities include Mountain High first-turn instruction on a 40-foot carpeted slope, ski and snowboard practice on a revolving simulation deck, a 19-foot climbing wall and speed contest, California Highway Patrol tire-chain contests, an inflatable skateboard deck, AI balance/race stations and a full-size chairlift photo setup; applicable lesson, climb and contest participants sign waivers. Friday now includes the L.A.-exclusive premiere of “Actually, It Is Rocket Science” at 8:00 PM. The movie is free with show admission but has limited seating and must be reserved in advance. Sunday adds Santa from 1:00-5:00 PM, North Pole letters and a holiday goodie bag for each child while supplies last. Paid adult admissions include a Ski Dazzle Member Card and lift-ticket-offer package collected at the in-show redemption booth with photo ID; the offer is nontransferable. Children 12 and under are free with an adult but still need a ticket and do not receive the lift offer. Verified Ikon and Epic pass holders can reserve one free admission with matching pass proof. The live checkout remains open across every listed tier, and all admission purchases are final. Magic Box has adjacent paid parking and is about a 10-minute walk from Metro Grand/LATTC. Big Bear Mountain Resort now confirms a concrete benefit within the show’s broader lift-offer package: every paid attendee receives a buy-one-get-one Snow Valley lift-ticket offer for the 2026/27 winter season. Blackout dates apply, and both tickets must be used on the same day. The resort has not published the exact blackout calendar on the event page, so attendees should verify eligible dates before planning a trip.
