Night Skiing is OPEN in all 4 Resorts!

December, 21st 2024

Imagine this: after skiing since the first chair and enjoying fresh turns all day, it’s still snowing and the sun is setting, but you’re hungry for more. What do you do now?

After record-breaking snowfall to start December, we are excited to announce that Night Skiing & Boarding has started across Hirafu, Hanazono, Annupuri, and Niseko Village! The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down at Niseko United.

We might be a bit biased, but we believe that night skiing at Niseko United is some of the best in the world! Since the inclusion of Hanazono in Winter 2020/21, we now boast the largest night skiing area in all of Japan. Whether you’re looking to carve deep on wide open groomers, shred powder into the night, cruise along the piste, or practice tricks in a progression-friendly terrain park, night skiing at Niseko United has it all!

Niseko Tokyu Grand HIRAFU

With 12 courses and two gondolas open, including the new Ace Gondola, night skiing in Hirafu is a must-do experience. If it’s snowing, don’t miss the chance to ride Super Ridge for some amazing powder turns in one of Hirafu’s top zones.

Opening Hours: 4:00PM – 7:00PM

Annupuri

Get ready to lay down big carves on the groomed slopes under the lights! Annupuri is a fantastic choice with the Jumbo Quad #1 lift operating, whether you’re looking to race down the hill or enjoy a leisurely cruise on the piste.

Hanazono

Hanazono’s Symphony Gondola continues to operate, providing access to excellent beginner and intermediate terrain such as Colly’s Folly and Juicy Fruit.
