This celebration of vintage skiing takes you through the development of the sport from its infancy. 

See for yourself what skiers in the 1930's, 60's and 70's used to wear and watch style and slalom demonstrations on original skis from the era. You can even meet some of the local ski legends from years gone by.

There will be a vintage ski โ€˜fleaโ€™ market during the day, a vintage car parade and a torchlit descent once darkness falls. 

Festivities will continue in the Cafรฉ Comptoir restaurant with a dinner concert and festive atmosphere.

Free event.
