  • Vail Cascade Celebrates Vail’s 50th Birthday with $0.50 Nightly Rate

Birthday wishes are typically set aside for the birthday person, but this winter, Vail Cascade Resort is making birthday wishes a communal experience since Vail would not be the world-class resort it is today without the people.

Vail Cascade Resort winter rates start at $199. The Happy Birthday Vail promotion kicks off Nov. 16 to coincide with Vail’s public launch celebration and concludes on Apr. 14.

During the 2012/2013 ski season, Vail will host a myriad of special events and activities to commemorate this grand milestone. From a US Ski Team ceremony on Nov. 15 and a public birthday bash with fireworks and concerts on Dec. 15 to special 50th anniversary Snow Daze celebrations on Dec. 10-16 and National Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame induction ceremonies in spring 2013, Vail will provide visitors endless opportunities to be part of the celebration. In addition to the festivities, Vail will also showcase its highly-anticipated, new gondola, a 10-passenger cabin with heated, cushioned seats and Wi-Fi access for guests.
