Now that it’s officially summer, what better way to mark the occasion than a feast? Or even, say, a Mountain Top Summer Feast?
You can do just that at Whistler Blackcomb (WB) starting this weekend, as one of the resort’s premier summer dining experiences makes its triumphant return (I mean, just look at those photos).
The Mount Top Summer Feast takes place every Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening until Sept. 3 at the Roundhouse Lodge on Whistler Mountain.
Tickets range from $29 for kids to $67 for adults—find full pricing here, and check out the full menu here.
(Hot locals deal alert: go this weekend, June 23-25, with proof of address and your pass to get 50 per cent off.)
Seatings start at 5:30 p.m., and guests will be treated to live music from local acts like the Big Love Band (Fridays), Brother Twang (Saturdays) and Sean Rose (Sundays).
Meanwhile, WB’s summer operations are in full swing, according to the weekly ops update released on Thursday, June 22.
The Canada Cup & BC Cup XCO will take place Saturday June 24 on Blackcomb Mountain. Guests are advised that Little Burn will be closed for the event, and access to the Big Burn Ascent trail will be via Merlin's ski run.
