Blue Mountain & Collingwood Events: Dates and Where to Stay
The festivals, tournaments and races that fill chalet weekends around Blue Mountain and Collingwood, each with its dates as the organizer publishes them and the chalet page to book it on. Where a season’s dates are not yet announced, the page says so and shows last year’s pattern instead of guessing. 45 events listed; more are added as they verify.

How we verify the dates
Every date on these pages was read from the organizer’s own page on the day shown as “Updated”. We refresh the whole list each January and June; an event that stops running is marked as such rather than deleted. Long weekends without a named event live on our long-weekend rentals page, and the wider annual rhythm of the area is in the Blue Mountain events calendar guide.
