Boyne Mountain ~ New Year’s Eve ~ December 31, 2023

Boyne Mountain New Year's Eve
Ring In The New Year

Whether your New Year’s plans include the slopes or the bars, we have just what you need to ring in 2025.

In fact, this is how we would do it: Wake and make turns starting at 9am, then take an afternoon trip to Avalanche Bay. Only the best for you, feast on surf and turf at one of our two New Year’s Eve dinner offerings.

Down a little bubbly and dress warm for the return of our annual Torchlight Parade followed by a bangin’ Fireworks Display.
