Info

Whistler Pride takes from the 25th January to 1st February 2026.

Join us in January for what will be an EPIC 33rd edition of the gathering that began in 1992 and is now the largest queer-focused ski week in the world. Pairing an unparalleled mountain experience with world-class events. Hosted by a team of friendly ski & snowboard guides and the festival events team - this is Canadian hospitality at its finest. The host hotel is the Aava Whistler Hotel.

Whistler pride welcomes queer youth and allies ages 13-18 with unique sport, social and cultural programming.

24th January
Whistler Pride Ski-OUT and Parade. A signature moment of the festival. The vibrant colours of pride pop brilliantly against the snow as skiers fly rainbows down the mountain and transfer them to waiting revellers to be paraded through the village in celebration of diversity and inclusivity. The Parade ends at the Whistler Conference Centre where we host the Parade Day T-Dance presented by TD Bank Group.
