The BRITS Snow & Music Festival is set to return to the Swiss resort of Laax from the 18th – 25th March 2012.

The Music
The BRITS Snow & Music Festival combines seven nights of live music and DJs with seven days of top snowboard and ski action – a holiday for both wintersports fanatics and hardcore partiers alike.

Headline acts are yet to be confirmed, but judging from previous line-ups, visitors can expect an eclectic mix of daily live après ski music, a big name act, a hedonistic fancy dress party and a different DJ of live band every night.

Previous acts on the BRITS line up have included Pendulum, The Correspondents, DJ Yoda and the fantastic Ben Howard. Watch this space for the 2012 line-up…

The Slopes
The BRITS isn’t just about the partying – although this is half of the appeal! The 220km of skiing and snowboarding terrain guarantees to keep first-time riders and skiers happy enough, while the four world-class snow parks and two halfpipes will challenge even the most seasoned of snow experts.

Whilst you’re not tackling the slopes yourself, you can sit back and enjoy watching some of the UK’s finest freestyle skiers and snowboarders battle it out for the coveted British Championship medals, including the Trespass Ski/Snowboardcross and the Protest Slopestyle title.

With slopestyle recently being included in the Sochi 2014 Olympic Games, The BRITS now dishes out titles in three Olympic disciplines: Halfpipe, Trespass Snowboard/Skiercross and the Protest Slopestyle, as well as continuing to crown the British Big Air Champion.  

Importantly, to complement its TTR association in snowboarding, The BRITS is now part of the Association of Freeski Professionals (AFP) World Tour Ranking.  This gives everyone the chance to secure World Ranking points and measure themselves against the likes of Simon Dumont and Bobby Brown whilst competing for British Championship titles across five age categories, Kids, Youth, Junior, Senior and Masters.

Week-packages start from £295, including seven nights’ accommodation, seven day liftpass, BRITS event wristband, which includes free access to all the club nights and a horde of discounts, and an official BRITS beanie.
