KILLINGTON, Vt. (September 3, 2026) – Vermont’s Killington Resort, the largest ski and snowboard destination in Eastern North America, announced today that tickets for the 2026 Stifel Killington Cup will be available for purchase starting Friday, September 4 at 10:00 a.m. ET at killington.com.
After a one-year hiatus for the installation of the Superstar Six chairlift, the Audi FIS Ski World Cup will return to Killington over Thanksgiving weekend, November 27-29, 2026. The event will once again feature women's giant slalom racing on Saturday and slalom racing on Sunday, with stars from the Stifel U.S. Ski Team expected to compete, including Mikaela Shiffrin and Paula Moltzan.
On Friday, November 27, the weekend's festivities begin with the athlete bib draw, fireworks, and live music, all free to the public. Saturday and Sunday feature world-class ski racing, live music, and a vendor village, with tickets starting at $10 per day.
This year's event will again highlight HERoic, the Stifel U.S. Ski Team initiative empowering women in the ski industry. After the races and live music conclude on Saturday, Killington will host a movie screening and panel discussion featuring female leaders from across the outdoor industry. Additional ticket information for the event will be announced soon.
The 2026 Stifel Killington Cup will also introduce a new tagline: "Where Legends Rise and Beasts Awaken." The Killington Cup has been an important steppingstone in the careers of several racers, including Mikaela Shiffrin, Lara Gut-Behrami, Federica Brignone, and more. As Killington prepares to host the world’s fastest female skiers for a ninth time, thousands of fans are expected to once again pack the Superstar spectator areas to see who will become the next must-watch racer on the tour.
“Our team is thrilled to welcome back thousands of dedicated ski racing fans from across the Northeast,” said Mike Solimano, president and CEO of Killington Resort and Pico Mountain. “After a year away from the Killington Cup, we’re looking forward to showcasing the new Superstar Six and improved snowmaking capabilities on Superstar, investments that further strengthen Killington as a World Cup-caliber venue.”
A portion of all ticket revenues will benefit the Killington World Cup Foundation (KWCF), which supports athlete team services and provides grants to strengthen winter sports infrastructure and expand access to winter sports throughout the region. Proceeds from 2024 supported over 30 winter sports programs across the Northeast.
