April 9-12, 2026 | Vail, Colorado
To Our Valued Sponsors and Attendees:
For the first time in our 31-year history, we’ve been forced to make late-stage changes to our agenda due to an unusually warm Colorado winter. We were informed by Vail Ski Resort that snowpack and conditions are forcing the resort to close early. The mountain will be closed on April 8th, which means our race events have been canceled.
Fortunately, the reasons why we gather have not changed and are not affected by Vail’s announcement. The Adaptive Spirit organization and our event committee work year-round to create the industry’s most exciting and purposeful experience. You’ll still find engaging content and meaningful connection with industry peers and athletes alike.
Every other part of our event is still on and we look forward to seeing you for them, including the Industry Insights Panel, Opening Night Reception, Rise & Connect, Lunches, Kids' Parties, Summit Social, Silent Auction and the Podium Bash.
We continue to drive towards the mission of the event and look forward to seeing you in Vail for networking and celebrating the remarkable spirit of the athletes as they bring their stories and medals home from the Milano Cortina Paralympic Games. Thank you for supporting the U.S. Para Ski & Snowboard Team!
Event details can be found on the event app and Agenda page of this site.
Please note: While credentials are non-refundable (but transferable), we will communicate a process for lift ticket refunds as soon as possible.
