Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Looks like a great line up in Mayrhofen and a great way to end the season in Val T Very Happy

I'm going alone too, its my first time so anyone who wants to meet up that would be great!! I went Glastonbury alone and we had a fb group where we all decided on meeting points and arranged a party/get together so everyone could meet, might be worth doing the same?

VERY EXCITED! Cant wait to get out there on those mountains!!!!

Haus Wiesengrund, tried to get a cheap and cheerful one as want to be spending most of my time/money out there! What about yourself? Have you guys been many times before? Any tips that I might not have thought of that might need sorting before I go, haven't been skiing for a good 5 years so def gonna need to get some practice in!!

@b_mackenzie, I'm in pension birkenhof also cos it's cheap n cheerful and in mayrhofen centre. I've never been to snowbombing before looks amazing tho. I just got back from wow glacier love festival in kaprun which was good but SB will be bigger and better I think.

@b_mackenzie, wow is a new event this year. It was good as its at the very start of season. one of my workmates is going too but I don't think they have booked yet and I think some of my other ski buddies will be booking too but they haven't booked yet. They need to get things booed as I think in previous years it has booked up quite quickly. That's why I booked early to get room at good price and to be honest I prefer my own room. Birthday too even more reason to celebrate

Ooo might have to have a look next year! I stayed up all night to get the early bird tickets which sold out in minutes haha! @ConBon looks like theres quite a few people going it alone so we'll all be in the same boat, people are usually more open to others when going alone so I have no doubt we're all going to make some wonderful friends out there!

Yes!! Exactly why I want to do it! I wish I thought about it earlier and got tickets! Do I now need to book accomodation through them along with tickets?

I booked it all together I think it's cheaper that way but I'm not 100% I did it in such a rush trying to get the early bird tickets it was very confusing!! Plus I hadn't slept just pressing refresh all night long haha!! I think its easier to do it all through the snowbombing website just because you can add your lift passes, ski hire ect and pay it off bit by bit, you only need to put the deposit down I think about £150 then pay off when ever.

But people on here might know of a better/cheaper way of doing it, you could start a thread theres always someone out there happy to help! Toofy Grin

Generally yes, although they do sell a limited number of festival passes at the event. (not bookable in advance)

I have been considering doing it again but the line-up looks shyte compared to SB14 Sad

@ConBon, I'm not much help as Ive never been to SB or mayrhofen before. I just picked pension birkenhof because it was cheap and reasonably central in town as I didn't want to have to get bus to other areas.

@ConBon, Is the Gasthof Zillertal on the list as that is a hostel. To be fair though, that week is all about snowbombing and so where ever you stay there will be a great atmosphere. Pension Birkenhof is a decent spot, ski bus goes to both Penken and Horberg lifts and is easy walk into town.

Was thinking about it but bit too late I think, cost for the week is far too much and I could effectively do 1 normal ski trip and a random festival in the UK for the same price. Shame as looks like a pretty decent line up, am due to see most of the same DJs in a few weeks but would be great to see them and then be able to go skiing Very Happy

@taffy20vt, well that's equal to about a week in total so you should be fine. Might want to stay away from Harakiri. Apparently it's the steepest groomed slope in Austria.

@Speachmaus, I believe so, a mate of mine has been down there a few times and told me to stay well away from it. I'll just start off on the easier slopes and try to improve throughout the week.

@Speachmaus, I can imagine. I'm looking forward to having more room, and for it to last longer than the 25 seconds it takes to get down the indoor slopes.
