The Bash
Brule Bash 2027 at Ski Brule: March 20–21
Brule Bash is Ski Brule's end-of-season celebration, held on Saturday and Sunday, March 20 and 21, 2027, at the ski hill outside Iron River. Spring snow, longer days and a hill full of people in costume make it one of the most fun weekends of the winter.
Wear a full costume and your lift ticket is half price, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days. You'll find it at Guest Services, and the costume has to stay on the whole time you ski or ride.
The rest of the Bash is free: races and games on the snow, a kids' area with bounce houses and a petting zoo, sled dog rides, live music, and a costume contest and parade each day.
