INVENTORY RELEASES: A limited number of parking spaces for the upcoming weekend open every Monday at 6pm. Remaining daily inventory is released the day prior to arrival at 8am and 2pm, allowing several opportunities to reserve parking for your desired ski/ride day.

Once a reservation is canceled, the parking space is immediately made available for booking in the system.

PRE-SEASON PARKING RELEASE: We’ll be releasing limited parking inventory for the entire season on Nov. 3,2025 at 8am MST. While you’ll be able to reserve days from this release, it’s mainly intended for guests traveling from out of town or with set vacation plans. Since you’re a Brighton Passholder and likely to visit often, we recommend holding out for our weekly, and daily releases throughout the season. This way, you won’t use up your free parking reservations for later dates when you’ll still be enjoying plenty of December days on the mountain.

• The Brighton Store parking lot is reserved for employees only during the winter season. If overflow parking is needed, please wait to be instructed by a Brighton parking lot attendant before parking at the Brighton Store. Otherwise, guests parking in the employee lot receive a violation fee.
