KILLINGTON, Vt.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Great Gulf, the developer of the vibrant master-planned mountain resort community at Killington, announced today that it will return as the exclusive Diamond sponsor of the Stifel Killington Cup, taking place November 28-29. As part of the partnership, Great Gulf will again be the Official Presenting Sponsor of the VIP Tent at the Audi FIS Ski World Cup. Great Gulf’s continued investment in the event reflects its long-term commitment to the Killington community and its vision for the base village, designed to bring new energy, connectivity and year-round vibrancy to the region.

The Stifel Killington Cup is one of the most anticipated events in Vermont and brings upwards of 35,000 visitors to the region over Thanksgiving weekend. The event returns after a one-year hiatus for infrastructure upgrades on the mountain, highlighted by the installation of the new Superstar Six high-speed chairlift. Since debuting in 2016, Killington has been a cornerstone of the women’s World Cup calendar, consistently delivering electric crowds and world-class racing in giant slalom and slalom.

“The Stifel Killington Cup brings the world to Killington and showcases the energy and character that make this area so special,” said Michael Sneyd, Managing Director, Killington, Resort Residential Division at Great Gulf. “Our continued partnership is about enhancing the event experience while creating opportunities for spectators to connect with the mountain, culture and lifestyle that define Killington. It reflects our long-term vision for the base village as a vibrant, four-season destination rooted in the spirit of Vermont and this community.”

Proceeds from tickets to the Great Gulf LiveKillington VIP Tent support the Killington World Cup Foundation, which funds local and regional youth development programs and expands access to sport and community initiatives across the region. In addition, Great Gulf is a partner of Killington Mountain School, one of the nation’s premier ski racing academies, underscoring a broader commitment to supporting the next generation of athletes and investing in the future of Vermont.

“The Stifel Killington Cup represents the very best of Killington on a global stage and Great Gulf’s partnership plays an important role in delivering that experience,” said Michael Solimano, President and CEO of Killington Resort and Pico Mountain. “Their long-term investment in the resort, along with their support of youth development initiatives, reflects a shared commitment to our community and continues to strengthen Killington’s position as a world-class destination.”

Great Gulf is bringing its vision for LiveKillington to life as an elevated mountain destination at the base of Killington Resort. The master-planned, four-season community will blend world-class architecture and amenities with a mix of residences and ski-in/ski-out home sites, complemented by thoughtfully curated retail, dining and entertainment to create a vibrant, year-round hub for living, recreation and connection.
