Park City, UT – One of the largest and oldest ski and snowboard swaps in the country, the 43rd annual Park City Ski Swap takes place next weekend.
The swap is scheduled for November 6, 7, and 8 at the Basin Recreation Field House in Park City, featuring over 25,000 square feet of new and used skis, snowboards, boots, poles, clothing and accessories all under one roof.
“The ski swap started out small in 1972 but has grown to one of the largest ski swaps in the country,” said Park City Ski Team Program Director and General Manager Jesse Hunt. “With people trying to make every dollar go further we believe this year’s ski swap will be one of the best ever, with discounted new equipment from the top vendors in the industry as well as quality used equipment.”
The Park City Ski Swap will operate Friday night from 8 p.m. until 1 a.m. (although the line to get in forms well in advance of opening), Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Admission is $10 on Friday, $5 on Saturday and $2 on Sunday. Children under 12 are always free. The Basin Recreation Field House is located at 1388 New Main Street in Kimball Junction.
