The London Show
The Metro Ski and Snowboard Show (metrosnow.co.uk) returns to Earls Court in London this autumn for a five day event from Wednesday 19TH to Sunday 23rd October. Long gone is the era of the 10 day show in November, this year the event is sandwiched between the Scottish Ski Show in Glasgow at the SECC the previous weekend, and the British Ski Show at Birmingham's NEC the weekend after.
Along with the usual resort and country stands, equipment retailers and shows there'll be a few evenrs to look out for. New for this year the Show is supporting beleaguered UK athletes at a grass roots level by raising awareness for all that we have to offer here at home for winter sports. Show goers can check out the local scene with GB team appearances, dry slopes and charity organizations.
In addition the UK's best riders are set to come face to face on the Trespass Hip Kicker each day of the show in front of industry professionals and the show's audience
The K2 Highest Ollie Tournament returns for 2011 and will see visitors of all ages testing the limits of the latest K2 equipment as competitor's battle for the highest Ollie. New for 2011 The Pierre & Vacances Petanque Piste will give people the perfect opportunity to try out the age old French summer favourite in a snowy setting.
And the Land Rover Fashion Show & Brand Arena showcasing all the latest styles in snow sport apparel for the 2011 winter season complete with break dancers, base layers and giveaways that we're told are, "so hot they're cold."
The London show is open from 11am on weekdays and 10pm at weekends. It's open to 7pm on opening day and Saturday, 6pm on Sunday and 10pm on Thursday and Friday. Tickets are £10 in advance for adults or £14 on the door.
