After a week’s festival with world class DJs and bands performing up on the slopes of the stunning ski resort of Mayrhofen in Austria, the Snowbombing festival has once again proved its status as one of the most popular music festivals in the mountains. From the 6 to 11 of April, Mayrhofen was transformed into a festival venue of international acclaim. With world famous stars such as Fat Boy Slim, Basement Jaxx and Carl Cox, it’s no surprise that Snowbombing was, once again, a huge success!

About Gareth

Skiing was something that was sort of forced on me as a child. When my parents signed me up for the school ski trip when I was 11, I think I sulked for a whole month! However, I have no idea how to thank them as I haven’t looked back since!
