SilverStar joining Ikon Pass network next winter

Apr 2, 2026 | 11:06 AM

The local ski hill will be joining a new pass network.

Starting in the 2026-27 winter season, SilverStar Mountain Resort will be taking part in Ikon Pass.

Through the service, Ikon Pass holders will have seven-day access to the hill with no blackout dates, Ikon Base Pass holders will have five-day access with select blackouts, and Ikon Session Pass holders will get access to the slopes up to four days a week with some dates blacked out as well.

Ikon Pass holders will also have access to other mountain resorts in British Columbia and Canada that take part in the service, including Revelstoke, Sun Peaks, and Panorama.

“SilverStar Mountain is thrilled to welcome Ikon Pass holders to discover the Okanagan region of British Columbia, where they’ll find uncrowded slopes, exceptional terrain, and the legendary snow we’re known for,” Herwig Demschar, General Manager of SilverStar Mountain, said.
