Here we go straight into the start of summer and there are lots of things to do in Blue Mountain. It’s amazing that we’re still considered a winter skiing destination considering how much you can enjoy here throughout the summer.
So without further ado, here are just some of the things to do at Blue Mountain in July.

Get set for everything from Carpet Frogs to Fireworks. The Carpet Frogs, a Canadian rock band known for their work with Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings, will headline the entertainment that runs all weekend long in the Village. But you don’t have to settle for just being entertained, you get active with guided hiking, lots of family activities and a slice of the ceremonial flag cake.
