New Venue And Format For 2015 London Ski Show

New Venue And Format For 2015 London Ski Show

Published : 02-Jul-2015 09:45



Details of this year's ski and snowboard shows in London have been published by sponsors The Telegraph.

After many years at Earls Court or London Olympia the show will be moving to a new venue at Battersea Park.

Now down to a four day duration it will also run a week later than last year, from Thursday 5th to Sunday 8th November 2015.

Along with the new venue, new concepts for the show include an outdoor alpine village, comedy from the stars of the Altitude Comedy Festival and the return of international pro-competition 'The London Ride' with a real-snow, 15m high kicker, presented by British Freeski Camps. It will be the first time in four years that such a contest has been staged in London.

"Set within Battersea Evolution, the indoor/outdoor hybrid will allow organisers, Telegraph Events, to create a unique mountain village experience giving exhibitors an optimal environment to promote their resorts, holidays and products," a statement from the organisers reads.

"Visitors will be transported to the mountains as they explore the resort, sampling authentic food, visiting après bars, shopping in the new outdoor village and browsing over 200 top snow sports brands and destinations within the show arena."

Tickets prices have not yet been announced but tickets will go on sale on Friday 7th August from www.skiandsnowboard.co.uk
