Australia’s Snow in Summer Event Loses Novelty as it Keeps Snowing
Australia’s Snow in Summer Event Loses Novelty as it Keeps Snowing
Published : 14-Dec-2022 06:43
A popular December event at Mt Buller ski area in Australia has lost its novelty a little as snow keeps falling on the country's ski slopes, naturally.
The Australian 2022 ski season ended in early October as springtime got underway, but in the intervening two months, as summertime neared, then arrived, Australian ski centres kept receiving repeat snowfalls, the latest in the past few days.
At times, particularly in October, it was colder and snowier in Australia than in the Alps and Rockies where ski areas were waiting for snowfall and low temperatures for snowmaking.
The natural snowfall risks taking some of the excitement from the annual 'Snow In Summer' event at Mt Buller ski area, which uses a pile of snow stockpiled from summer to create a snowy area for fun activities around Christmas. This year the event will run from 27th to 31st December.
On the agenda are kids' activities, a live DJ and snow play activities daily.
"Our entertainers will provide some super exciting activities in the snow, plus a spot for general snow play and DJ's pumping the holiday tunes," the resort promises.
New Year's Eve will include a special Snow Disco with Glitter Bar and Snow Games to bring in the New Year.
