Masters’ Week has been designed specifically for passionate skiers only aged 50+, and is offered as three separate sessions throughout the season (see dates below). New for the 21/22 season, Masters’ Week now offers five days of 4-hour lessons for participants; now you get to discover all of the terrain that Big White has to offer!
Masters’ Week evolved from our well-established Masters’ Monday program. It combines the best skiing Big White has to offer, while you learn from some of the top ski instructors in BC each morning, with a number of exclusive après events and other optional activities.
