When does the Epic Pass price go up? September 7, 2026
The current official answer: Vail Resorts says the lowest 2026-27 Epic fall price ends September 7, 2026, with prices increasing after that date. The announcement applies this fall-price timing to Epic Pass and Epic Local Pass. It does not supply a next-price quote, so the seller remains the final source before purchase.
This page will withhold the date and leave search after September 7 unless the official record is refreshed.
What it does not settleKeep a date separate from the purchase decision
The source does not tell this site the next price, your checkout total, eligibility, tax, financing, reservation requirements, destination access, parking, lifts, terrain, weather, or operations. Treat it as a prompt to recheck—not a guarantee to buy.

Keep one source-reported date where you plan.
The calendar feed contains the stated Epic or Epic Local date only while the source record is current. It does not infer a future price date after this one passes, and every event asks you to recheck Epic.
Epic price date: source-bound answers
- When does the Epic Pass price go up for 2026-27?
- Vail Resorts says the lowest 2026-27 Epic fall price ends September 7, 2026, and prices increase after that date. The source does not give this page a next-price quote, so open the official seller before you buy.
- Does this September 7 date apply to Epic Local Pass too?
- Yes. The same Vail Resorts announcement names Epic Pass and Epic Local Pass among its 2026-27 options and says the lowest fall Pass price ends September 7, 2026. Product availability, eligibility, access, taxes, financing, and checkout price can still differ; recheck the exact product page.
- Should I buy an Epic pass just because the price changes?
- Not automatically. First compare the mountains and days you expect to ski against dated ticket benchmarks and pass rules. A stated price date does not prove a particular product fits a trip, household, access calendar, reservation requirement, or budget.
