Nourish Whistler Wellness Series FAQs

Nourish Whistler is a celebration of wellbeing, connection, and ideas set in the heart of the mountains. Throughout June, Nourish Whistler brings together inspiring voices, movement experiences, culinary events and immersive wellness sessions designed to nourish body, mind and community. The festival invites guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and explore new ways of living well in one of the world’s most inspiring natural environments.

Nourish Whistler takes place throughout the month of June, with events scheduled across multiple weekends and venues throughout Whistler.

Nourish Whistler events take place in a variety of inspiring locations throughout Whistler, each chosen to reflect the festival’s connection to nature, wellbeing, and community. Venues include mountain settings, lakeside gathering spaces, unique village venues, and our signature Nourish Dome on Whistler Mountain. Each event listing includes specific venue details and arrival information to help you plan your visit.

One of our featured locations is The Station House on Alta Lake, a beautiful lakeside venue accessible via the Whistler Valley Trail, making it easy to reach by walking or biking. Other experiences take place at The Lookout on Blackcomb Mountain, a scenic alpine setting reached by a short hike, as well as venues throughout Whistler Village.

Nourish Whistler is for anyone curious about wellness, creativity, personal growth and meaningful experiences. Some sessions are perfect for beginners exploring new practices, while others offer deeper learning for those already engaged in wellness.

Nourish Whistler events take place in a variety of unique and inspiring locations throughout Whistler. Getting there is part of the experience, and some venues require a little extra planning.

Some events take place on Whistler Mountain in the Nourish Dome, which requires lift access. A specially priced lift ticket will be available for purchase alongside your event ticket.

Other venues include The Station House, located along the Whistler Valley Trail and easily accessed by walking or biking, and The Lookout, a scenic mountain location reached by a short 500-metre hike.

Detailed directions and arrival information will be included in your ticket confirmation.

The scenic ride on the Whistler Village Gondola from the Village to the Roundhouse typically takes 20 – 25 minutes.

Parking availability varies by venue. Base area events offer paid public parking, and we encourage guests to walk, bike, or carpool whenever possible.

The Dome is a pop-up location on Whistler Mountain. Take the Whistler Village Gondola to the Roundhouse Lodge (a valid lift pass is required). Once inside the Roundhouse, head up the stairs to the Cappuccino Bar. Follow the signage up the second set of stairs to the left. Here you will find The Dome.

The Lookout is a pop-up location on Blackcomb Mountain on Lower Cruiser, a short walk from Base 2. No lift pass is required to access The Lookout.

If driving, park for free at Lot 6 (4890 Glacier Drive). By transit, take the #7 Blackcomb bus from the Gondola Transit Exchange to Base 2. At Base 2, head toward the mountain between The Cabin and Eighteen Below, then follow Nourish signage for a moderate 500 m uphill walk (about 7 minutes) to the venue.

An additional option is to park in the Village Day Lots and hike up The Ascent Trail until you see signage for The Lookout. This is approximately a 25-minute moderate uphill climb.

Arrive 30 – 40 minutes early to allow time for travel and the walk. You’ll also receive detailed arrival instructions by email before your event.

The Station House is a pop-up location on Alta Lake, located at 5560 Old Mill Lane. This venue is completely inaccessible by car, and nearby vehicle parking is extremely limited, so active transport is highly encouraged. You can enjoy a beautiful 45–60 minute walk or bike ride from Whistler Village, or access the venue via a short walk or bike ride along the Valley Trail from Alta Lake Road or Wayside Park.

Yes. All events at The Dome require a lift pass for mountain access. If you have a 2026/27 Epic Pass, a 2026 Full Bike Park Pass, or another eligible pass, you’re already covered. If not, you’ll need to purchase a lift pass to access the venue. See the next FAQ for details.

The easiest option is to select the General Admission + Alpine Experience Pass during checkout for your Nourish event. This pass provides summer sightseeing access for the entire season — roughly the cost of a single ticket — making it ideal if you plan to attend multiple mountain events or explore the alpine throughout the summer. Once purchased, don’t forget to pick up your pass from Whistler Village Guest Services in Skiers Plaza.

After purchasing your General Admission + Alpine Experience Pass, visit Whistler Village Guest Services in Skiers Plaza to collect it. Bring your Nourish confirmation email and government-issued ID. We recommend picking it up the day before your event to avoid lineups.

If you’ve purchased your event ticket but don’t have the required Alpine Experience Pass, call the Nourish team at 1-844-955-3263 for assistance.

Restaurant events do not require physical tickets.

After purchasing your ticket online, your name will be added to the guest list at the restaurant. Simply arrive at your reserved time and check in under the name used at purchase. Bringing your confirmation email can be helpful but is not required.

The Nourish Dome is a sheltered structure designed to create a comfortable environment while still connecting guests with nature. While it provides protection from wind or rain, it remains an outdoor mountain setting — so we recommend dressing warmly in layers.

Many culinary experiences offer vegetarian and other dietary options. Please review event descriptions or contact us if you have specific dietary needs.

Many events are designed to take place rain or shine. If severe weather affects safety or requires a venue change, registered guests will be notified by email with updated information.

We love our volunteers and can’t wait to welcome you to the team.
