Snowbombing

Snowbombing is one of the few destination festivals where the daytime activity is as consequential as the lineup; how hard you ski determines how much night you actually have.

Mayrhofen, Austria · Early April

WHY IT MATTERS

Snowbombing is one of the few destination festivals where the daytime activity is as consequential as the lineup; how hard you ski determines how much night you actually have.

THE NIGHT

What you’re here for

  • mountaintop sets
  • forest and street parties
  • Mayrhofen clubs after the lifts close
BASE CAMP

Where to stay

  • Central Mayrhofen for walkable village nights
  • An official group apartment or chalet close to a ski-bus stop
BETWEEN IT ALL

What to eat

  • mountain-hut lunch
  • Tyrolean comfort food before the night programme
BEFORE YOU BOOK

Know before you go

  • Book through the official package system; accommodation is part of each booking and a £50-per-person deposit can hold the trip
  • A festival place without accommodation is not the normal product - coordinate the crew before anyone pays a deposit
  • Lift passes, equipment and airport transfers are add-ons, so the headline package price is not the finished budget
