Designed to take guests further and faster up Perisher. the existing fixed-grip 2-person Mt Perisher Double lift and fixed-grip 3-person Mt Perisher Triple lift will be upgraded to a new 6-person, high-speed chairlift (‘the Mt Perisher 6’) for the 2025 ski and ride season in Australia. The high-speed detachable chair will increase chairlifting capacity in the Mt Perisher area by 60%. This is a multi-year project with preparatory work to begin ahead of the 2024 winter season, with an expected completion for the 2025 winter season.

The Epic Australia Pass is non-refundable except through Epic Coverage, which provides refunds for certain qualifying events and is provided at no additional cost. Refunds are subject to eligibility and based on Epic Coverage options. Pass Holders should review the Epic Coverage Terms and Conditions.

*Based on single day lift tickets at Perisher in 2023, the 2024 Epic Australia Pass pays for itself in 5 days.
