What are Epic Friend Tickets? How many come with a Pass? NEW for the 2025/26 winter season, season-long Pass Holders will receive 6-10 Epic Friend Tickets, which offer up to 50% off lift tickets at all of Vail Resorts’ 37 owned and operated resorts in North America.   In the 2026/27 season, Epic Friend Tickets will offer 50% off the window price of Lift Tickets for friends ages 13 and up and 25% off of child (ages 5-12 at most resorts) Lift Tickets. All eligible Passes come with six Epic Friend Tickets. In addition, guests who purchased an eligible season-long Pass on or before April 14, 2025, will receive an extra four Epic Friend Tickets. Epic Military and Epic Adaptive Pass Holders will receive six Epic Friend Tickets regardless of when they purchased, significantly upgrading their previous benefits.  During the 2025/26 winter season, you are able to login to your My Epic app or onto your Epic Pass account online to view the Epic Friend Tickets associated with your 2025/26 Pass. Eligible 2026/27 Passes bought on or before April 12, 2026, will include 10 Epic Friend Tickets. New this year, Military and Adaptive Epic Passes will be eligible for 10 Epic Friend Tickets if purchased during this period. Epic Friend Tickets associated with 2026/27 Passes will become redeemable close to the start of the 2026/27 winter season. You will be able to login to your My Epic app or onto your Epic Pass account online to view the Epic Friend Tickets associated with your Pass. What Passes come with Epic Friend Tickets?

For the 2025/26 winter season, Epic Friend tickets will replace and significantly upgrade Buddy Tickets, a former Pass benefit that generally offered much lower savings on lift tickets and varied by resort. Epic Friend Tickets will always provide 50% off lift tickets at any of Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations for the 2025/26 season. In addition to Epic Friend Tickets, we will still provide Ski With A Friend Tickets to eligible Pass Holders who already purchased eligible 2025/2026 passes in the Spring. Pass Holders who purchased an eligible season-long Pass on or before April 14, 2025 will be able to redeem six Ski With A Friend Tickets in addition to their 10 Epic Friend Tickets. Pass Holders who purchased on or before May 27, 2025 will be able to redeem two Ski With A Friend Tickets in addition to their six Epic Friend Tickets. Epic Military Pass Holders will have all their Ski With A Friend Tickets upgraded to Epic Friend Tickets. Ski With A Friend Tickets will expire after the 2025/26 winter season. How do Epic Friend Tickets compare to Ski With A Friend Tickets? Which one is better to use first if I received both benefits with my Pass? Epic Friend Tickets always offer a better deal, so to benefit from the most savings, we recommend using them before your Ski With A Friend Tickets. Ski With A Friend Tickets are discounted single day lift tickets that offer slight savings compared to the standard advance lift ticket discount. This discount varies according to the daily rate at each resort, whereas Epic Friend Tickets always provide a set discount of 50% off window rate lift tickets for the 2025/26 season. At which resorts can I use Epic Friend Tickets? Epic Friend Tickets can be used at any of Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations . They cannot be used at Vail Resorts’ owned and operated resorts in Switzerland or Australia, or at any partner resorts on the Epic Pass. Who can use my Epic Friend Tickets? Anyone! Pass Holders can give Epic Friend Tickets to friends and family.  Can I use an Epic Friend Ticket on a restricted peak day? Yes, Epic Friend Tickets can be used for days when your Pass might be restricted due to holidays, or at one of Vail Resorts 37 North American resorts where your Pass does not have access.  Can the same friend/person use multiple Epic Friend Tickets? Yes, the same friend can use more than one Epic Friend Ticket during the season.  Can an Epic Friend Ticket be used any day of the season, even if the accompanying Pass Holder has a blackout day on that day? Yes, Epic Friend Tickets can be used any day at any of the season at Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations, including on Peak Restricted Dates.  If a Pass Holder’s Pass does not include lift access on a given day due to Peak Restricted Dates, the Pass Holder will be required to use an Epic Friend Ticket for themselves and can also share an additional one with their friends to give them both access for that day.

**What are Epic Friend Tickets?

In the 2026/27 season, Epic Friend Tickets will offer 50% off the window price of Lift Tickets for friends ages 13 and up and 25% off of child (ages 5-12 at most resorts) Lift Tickets. All eligible Passes come with six Epic Friend Tickets. In addition, guests who purchased an eligible season-long Pass on or before April 14, 2025, will receive an extra four Epic Friend Tickets. Epic Military and Epic Adaptive Pass Holders will receive six Epic Friend Tickets regardless of when they purchased, significantly upgrading their previous benefits. During the 2025/26 winter season, you are able to login to your My Epic app or onto your Epic Pass account online to view the Epic Friend Tickets associated with your 2025/26 Pass. Eligible 2026/27 Passes bought on or before April 12, 2026, will include 10 Epic Friend Tickets.

Epic Friend Tickets will always provide 50% off lift tickets at any of Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations for the 2025/26 season. In addition to Epic Friend Tickets, we will still provide Ski With A Friend Tickets to eligible Pass Holders who already purchased eligible 2025/2026 passes in the Spring. - Pass Holders who purchased an eligible season-long Pass on or before April 14, 2025 will be able to redeem six Ski With A Friend Tickets in addition to their 10 Epic Friend Tickets. - Pass Holders who purchased on or before May 27, 2025 will be able to redeem two Ski With A Friend Tickets in addition to their six Epic Friend Tickets. Epic Military Pass Holders will have all their Ski With A Friend Tickets upgraded to Epic Friend Tickets. Ski With A Friend Tickets will expire after the 2025/26 winter season. **How do Epic Friend Tickets compare to Ski With A Friend Tickets? Which one is better to use first if I received both benefits with my Pass?** Epic Friend Tickets always offer a better deal, so to benefit from the most savings, we recommend using them before your Ski With A Friend Tickets. Ski With A Friend Tickets are discounted single day lift tickets that offer slight savings compared to the standard advance lift ticket discount. This discount varies according to the daily rate at each resort, whereas Epic Friend Tickets always provide a set discount of 50% off window rate lift tickets for the 2025/26 season. **At which resorts can I use Epic Friend Tickets?** Epic Friend Tickets can be used at any of Vail Resorts’ 37 North American [destinations](https://www.epicpass.com/regions.aspx). They cannot be used at Vail Resorts’ owned and operated resorts in Switzerland or Australia, or at any partner resorts on the Epic Pass. **Who can use my Epic Friend Tickets?** Anyone! Pass Holders can give Epic Friend Tickets to friends and family. **Can I use an Epic Friend Ticket on a restricted peak day?** Yes, Epic Friend Tickets can be used for days when your Pass might be restricted due to holidays, or at one of Vail Resorts 37 North American resorts where your Pass does not have access. **Can the same friend/person use multiple Epic Friend Tickets?** Yes, the same friend can use more than one Epic Friend Ticket during the season. **Can an Epic Friend Ticket be used any day of the season, even if the accompanying Pass Holder has a blackout day on that day?** Yes, Epic Friend Tickets can be used any day at any of the season at Vail Resorts’ 37 North American destinations, including on Peak Restricted Dates. If a Pass Holder’s Pass does not include lift access on a given day due to Peak Restricted Dates, the Pass Holder will be required to use an Epic Friend Ticket for themselves and can also share an additional one with their friends to give them both access for that day.
