Bromont, montagne d’expériences Celebrates 60 Years of Skiing

Bromont, montagne d’expériences (BME) is turning 60, and the celebration kicks off this Saturday, January 18!

With fresh snowfall and mild temperatures in the forecast, the mountain is set to welcome skiers and riders for a full day of festivities. Things get going at the base of the Village side with a set by comedian Alex Barrette, followed by a high-energy show from Les Trois Accords that’s sure to get the crowd moving.

“I’d like to thank our guests and staff for their incredible loyalty to the mountain,” says Charles Désourdy, President of BME. “Your passion is what drives us to keep delivering an unbeatable ski experience, season after season. We’re also committed to ensuring the long-term future of the mountain, so we can keep skiing for the next 60 years!”

The party continues into the evening with a fireworks display and the first-ever Bal des lumières—a glowing descent down Bedford trail where skiers and snowboarders will light up the night with LED sticks. The evening wraps up with a live show by Qualité Motel at the base of the slopes.

A Mountain with a Rich History

Since opening in 1964 with Mont Soleil and its first three trails on Mont Brome, Bromont has played a big part in shaping the story of skiing in Quebec.

A few standout milestones:

• Night skiing and snowmaking introduced in 1980

• Hosted the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup Finals in 1986

• Opened the Versant du Lac in 2002, followed by the Cantons (2006), Côte Ouest, Midi and Épinettes (2007)

• Installed a hybrid lift with gondolas in 2018

• Opened the award-winning Chalet du Sommet in 2019

• Launched the new Chalet Soleil in 2021

These moments, along with major snowmaking investments, show Bromont’s ongoing commitment to top-tier ski conditions and sustainable mountain development for generations to come.
