Diamond Peak Spring Event Updates
March 18, 2026 | Member Submitted
It’s spring in Lake Tahoe… Actually, with temperatures in the 70s at Lake level this week, it almost feels like summer! But we’ve still got snow on the slopes and a slate of great spring events coming up that you won’t want to miss. So read on for event updates, and then make plans to join in the fun!
Pro Tip: 2026-27 season passes are on sale now and include spring access for the remainder of this ski season. It’s the best deal in Tahoe!
New Date for Dummy Downhill – Sunday, March 29The big news is that we are pushing the Dummy Downhill event forward to ensure we have enough snow to build the dummy launch ramp. The new date is Sunday, March 29. Everything else about the event remains the same – same incredible creativity, same entertaining dummy flights, same fun DJ dance parties.
Saturday, March 21 – Spring Summit Pop Up Bar
Anyone who’s ever enjoyed a beverage at Snowflake Lodge will appreciate the incredible views available all over the mountain. For one day only, that view gets elevated to the top of the Crystal Express chairlift for the Spring Summit Pop Up Bar. We’ll offer a selection of canned beers, cocktails, hard seltzers and non-alcoholic options, plus packaged snacks for sale at the custom-made snow bar on top of Crystal Ridge. Click here for full event details.
Note: Spring Summit Pop Up Bar is only accessible to intermediate/advanced skiers and snowboarders who can ski/ride down Crystal Ridge.
Friday, March 27 – 60th Anniversary $60 Lift Ticket Day + DJ Party
Enjoy old-school pricing with $60 lift tickets, $60 ski or snowboard rentals packages, and $60 first-time learn-to-ski and learn-to-ride lesson packages on March 27. There is no limit to the number of lift tickets available on our $60 days, but the learn-to-ski/ride packages are subject to availability. Click here for full details.
The fun continues in the afternoon with DJ Dom spinning tunes on the Loft Bar Deck from 2 – 5pm.
Saturday, March 28 – Luggi Foeger Uphill/Downhill Festival & SkiMo Race.
There is nothing quite like the feeling of ascending and descending a mountain under your own power. At Diamond Peak’s 7th annual Luggi Foeger Uphill/Downhill Festival, rather than riding the chairlifts to the top of the resort, participants will climb the slopes using whatever human-powered method they prefer – skins, snowshoes, running shoes, etc. – then ski, snowboard, snowshoe or run back down to the finish line.
It’s part endurance challenge, part in-bounds adventure, and completely customizable to participants’ personal fitness levels.
