38th ANNUAL BOSTON.COM SKI & SNOWBOARD EXPO SET FOR NOV. 14-17

The 38th annual Boston.com Ski & Snowboard Expo at the Seaport World Trade Center, Boston Harbor, Nov. 14-17, marks the New England kick-off to the 2019-2020 ski season. Ski resorts and ski/snowboard gear companies mark the annual occasion with show-only specials that get the season rolling with exceptional offers. This year’s winter sports extravaganza is one week later than in recent years.

This year marks the last appearance of the Expo at the Seaport World Trade Center, which is scheduled for major renovations in 2020. But the show will go on, says producer Bernie Weichsel. In 2020, BEWI Productions will host the annual event at the Hynes Convention Center in downtown Boston. The Hynes was home to some of the earliest ski expos over 38 years ago when Weichsel first got involved in ski show production.

The Ski & Snowboard Expo’s retail partner, Country Ski & Sport, hosts the region’s biggest sale with pre-season specials offering savings of up to 80% off. Resorts from around the globe will offer big pre-season savings on winter vacation packages, lift tickets and season passes. Dynamic performances, specialty interactive booths, VIP snowsports personalities highlight the four-day event, which is presented by SUBARU of New England.

Doors are open on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 14 & 15, from 3-10 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 16, 10 a.m.-8 p.m., and on Sunday, Nov. 17, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.
