The 2016 Telegraph Ski & Snowboard Show Back at Battersea
Published : 11-May-2016 01:31
The 2016 Telegraph Ski & Snowboard Show Park will return for its second year at the Battersea Evolution exhibition centre within Battersea park this autumn.
Although sticking to its new venue, the show is moving back to its late October date from its early November one last year, meaning it will be staged in the English school holidays just before Halloween from the 27th – 30th October, 2016.
There will be something of a family feel to this year's show too with magic shows, face painting, a free-to-use ice rink for all abilities as well as a real snow tubing slope. There's a new Kid's Corner promised as the hub of family entertainments.
Children aged under 11 will be free, 11 – 16 year olds £8, and there's an advanced purchase 'family ticket' currently available for £30, otherwise advance prices for adults are £15.
Most of the popular attractions from last year's show will be back too, along with some new ideas.
'Mount Battersea' – a real snow slope – will be back for tubing and events, there'll also be a rail jam, the return of the Alpine Street Food area providing authentic dishes and regional wine and beers completes the après vibe. The Altitude Comedy Festival tent (pictured above), Boot Fitting Clinic and Mountain Talks Theatre will also return.
The Travel Genius Bar where experienced ski journalists and other experts provide top tips will be back and from 5pm on Friday 26th there'll be a late night après party.
