Accommodation

Santa's Snowdome

Come say hello to Santa in his very own snowglobe, just outside the Perisher Centre in Front Valley! Snap a photo, have a chat, and let the kids tell him exactly what's on the wish list this year (six months early never hurt anyone)!

Come visit Santa's Snowdome from:

  • 10:00am - 1:00pm
  • 3:00pm - 5:00pm

Elf on the Shelf: Subaru Wilderness Scavenger Hunt

Four of our mischievous blue elves have escaped the shelf and scattered themselves across the slopes, each one holding a flag with a Subaru prize pack up for grabs! Follow our socials on the day for clues on where the elves are hiding, then get searching. The first to find a flag and bring it to Guest Services wins the prize, and the elf is yours to keep as a little Christmas souvenir. T&Cs apply.

Soak Up the Christmas Vibes

There's plenty more to enjoy around the resort throughout the day! Warm up by the Jax Bar firepit with a spot of marshmallow roasting, or grab a treat from the popcorn and fairy floss truck, on from 3pm - 6pm and  7pm - 8pm while stocks last.

Night Skiing & Fireworks

The Christmas vibes don't stop once the sun goes down. Strap in for a session of night skiing under lights, then look up as fireworks light up the sky over the slopes. The CFA will also be on hand, with a fire truck for the kids to check out and a chance to have a chat with real firefighters. A magical way to end the day, and about as close to Christmas Eve as you'll get in July!

Please note that Night Skiing and Boarding lift access is not included in a single or multi-day lift ticket and must be purchased separately.

Night Skiing is included for Epic Australia Pass and Epic Australia 4-Day Pass holders. Please note, for Epic Australia 4-Day Pass holders, if night skiing is the first time you scan your Pass that day, 1 of your 4 days will be used.
