Picture this.... it's race morning, you and your race crew drive right to the American Birkebeiner OR Kortelopet Start Venue, park just a short walk away from the starting gates in the coveted Premium Parking lot, arrive on your own schedule, (even arrive early enough to watch Jessie Diggins and other World Cup athletes start!) stay warm in your car, go through your pre-race routine in private…then, head to the Start and take off! 

Looking for an even more VIP experience? Then Valet Parking to the Start is for you! Park just past the Recovery Zone on Birkie morning, board a coach bus where you get your own double seat. Snack on coffee and light treats on the drive to the Birkebeiner start line where you are parked right at the start line where few are closer. With an on board bathroom you can wait in the comfortable warmth before walking out right to your start gate!

Your Premium Parking pass purchase is a donation that goes directly to The Mt Telemark Village Capital Campaign, increasing access and opportunities for all.

Passes will be mailed directly Premium Parking donors in early February.  This mailed pass will be required to be shown to access Premium Parking on the 23rd or 24th.  Your pass is only valid for either the Kortelopet on the 23rd or the Birkebeiner on 24th, not both. A driving map and parking directions are included for both venues for accessing the appropriate lot. Your pass must be displayed in your vehicle upon entrance and while parked

Open Track events on Wednesday the 21st do not have Premium Parking. View Start venue access for the Open Track events at https://www.birkie.com/ski/events/open-track/
