Three Weeks of Festivals in Mayrhofen
Three Weeks of Festivals in Mayrhofen
Published : 03-Sep-2024 09:43
The Austrian Tirol's Mayrhofen is set to run three successive weeks of festivals to round off its 24-25 season next spring.
The long time British favourite will first stage the Altitude Comedy Festival in late March, followed by the British Snowboard & Freeski Championships and then it's straight on to the perennial festival favourite, Snowbombing.
The British Snowboard and Freeski Championships, aka 'The Brits' will see their for the first staging in the Alps since 2019. The Championships were hit by the pandemic in 2020 like most festivals and were then staged in Scotland and on indoor snow at Tamworth but now return to Mayrhofen where they were last staged more than two decades ago in 2000 and 2001, from 29 March – 5 April.
That sandwiches them between the Altitude Comedy Festival (24-28 March) and Snowbombing (7–12 April) so it's possible to enjoy three weeks of non-stop festivals in Mayrhofen!
Spring festivals and similar celebrations have become increasingly important end-of-season crowd draws for ski resorts across the Alps as they try to maintain business levels through to Easter.
