Industry News
Indy Pass announced that existing passholders can renew their passes starting today for the lowest guaranteed price. This comes as Indy unveils a new online system for pass renewals designed to reward its most loyal customers, as well as the addition of 16 new resorts to its pass offering. Following the renewal period, the 2026-27 sale will invite waitlist members to purchase their passes on a first-come, first-served basis until capacity is reached. The public sale period will begin on March 1 and is dependent on capacity after renewals and waitlist purchases.
“Indy Pass has experienced remarkable growth and with that growth comes responsibility. We must continue to grow our passholder base thoughtfully while respecting capacity limits and preserving the uncrowded atmosphere our partner resorts are known for. Our goal with this process is to make sure we can get as many people off the waitlist as soon as possible.
— Erik Mogensen, Indy Pass Director
Starting today, the new renewal process will ask passholders to purchase their 2026-27 Indy Pass, which will automatically renew each year at the lowest guaranteed price. Passholders can opt out of this plan at any time and will secure their 2026-27 Indy Pass once charged. Those who opt out of auto-renewal will forfeit their renewal pricing for the following year, and their spot will be offered to members on the waitlist immediately.
Current passholders are invited to renew their pass today. Newcomers are encouraged to sign up for the waitlist for an opportunity to join Indy.
Commitment to Affordability
Indy Pass has reduced the price of the flagship product, the Indy+ Pass, to $399, offering more access and zero blackout dates for a more affordable price. Indy continues to offer the Indy Add-On Pass, which offers the same access as its standard products but at a heavily reduced price of $269 Adult / $169 Child. Proof of an unlimited season pass to a member resort is required, but does not need to be verified until four days before the passholder’s first day of use in the 2026-27 season.
Payment Plan
The Payment Plan will be available for all pass purchases, making it more affordable for all. Indy’s Payment Plan continues to be offered at 0% interest and with no 3rd-party banks (unlike the big guys), in three payments, with the first due at the time of purchase.
Developing New Skiers from the Learn to Turn Pass
More than 40 resorts participated in Indy Pass’ new Learn to Turn product in the current 2025-26 season, which is geared towards developing new skiers and riders in the industry. In an effort to convert these first-timers into lifelong skiers, Indy Pass will offer them renewal pricing on Indy Passes starting today.

300 Resort Guarantee
Passholders may request a refund before December 1, 2026, if the number of Indy Pass resort partners is less than 300 by November 1, 2026. A passholder can also request a refund for an unused pass by December 1, 2026, if their favorite resort from the 2025-26 season does not renew for 2026-27.
New Resorts
Indy Pass is announcing the addition of 16 new ski areas for the 2026-27, including Les 7 Laux, France; Valmorel, France; Bergbahnen Hohsaas AG, Switzerland; Levi, Finland; Murray Ski Ridge, BC; Pebble Creek Ski Area, ID; Thrill Hills, ND; Stranda Ski Resort, Norway; Stöten i Sälen, Sweden; Franconia Inn & Outdoor Center, NH; Great Glen Trails Outdoor Center XC, NH; Northern Maine Community Trails XC, ME; Steamboat Ski Touring Center XC CO; Haymaker Nordic Center XC, CO; and The Loppet XC, MN. Indy Pass will continue to add resorts over the off-season and expects major additions before the 2026-27 season.
Year-Round Skiing
Indy’s expansion into South America, Scandinavia, and Europe allows year-round ski opportunities for passholders when conditions permit. The 2025-26 Indy Pass provides ski access through the summer season until August at Corralco, Chile, while the 2026-27 Indy Pass begins in September with skiing in Austria at Pitztaler Gletscherbahn and Kaunertaler Gletscher.
Great deal except for the $10 RFID card that is useless. I still can’t find a resort that uses it, even though the resorts use the same company for their own RFID cards (Entabeni systems).
