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 :-)

Sunweb (Tour Operator)

Sunweb collaborates with European Gay Ski Week

Sunweb today announces a partnership with the European Gay Ski Week. This event will take place in March 2024 in Val Thorens. Through this partnership, Sunweb is the first international tour operator to support the European Gay Ski Week. Thanks to the collaboration, booking the ticket for the festival is super easy, because the flights, a ski pass and accommodation and - most importantly - the Event Pass are now in one package. Sunweb is the only travel organization associated with the festival and creates and maintains the booking site and takes care of both the entire trip and the stay of the holidaymakers.

Inclusivity and diversity

Martine Langerak, Head of Communication & PR at Sunweb Group is very happy and very proud with this collaboration: "Together with the European Gay Ski Week, we ensure that all customers experience a unique customer experience. We are proud to support an event that proactively promotes and promotes inclusivity and diversity. In addition, we are committed to making holidays more accessible to everyone, because we believe that everyone should be able to enjoy a winter sports holiday."

Our guests now get all the benefits of booking through a major tour operator, while we can focus on creating an even more memorable event."

@stanton, Let us know how you get on.

Although I'm not sure how inclusive a 'gays only' event is Very Happy

I don't think it says "Gays only"!
However, it does say "when 2,000 of our LGBTQI+ community and their allies descend on Val Thorens!"

That's a shame to read - the past 2 years its been in Les Arcs, and everyone - by which i mean CIS as well as LGBTQ+ - and the shopkeepers, restaurant and bar owners have been enthusiastic and positive about it. We - my family - certainly enjoyed the additional colour and vibrancy in resort.

Wonder what happened to make them move?

Probably the deal. If VT threw in supercheap lift passesor or free party venues etc it can move the needle. There is a competitive process between resorts to land the spending power that comes with these event weeks.

I don't see why there needs to be an event week, I always thought Skiing was an all inclusive sport. Puzzled rolling eyes rolling eyes

for the well-off.

At the same time no reason why there can't be a gay week, or a Scots week, or a blokes week, if that is what people like.

and if it means I can avoid blokes in posing pouches etc on the slopes I'm all in favour of channeling things into a specific resort, it is bad enough with the drunks in the afternoon

Yeah so by the same count there don't need to be sHs bashes because they are exclusive to signed up members here.

Just think of it as a marketing event : fill the resort in an otherwise relatively quiet week. The whole tourism industry is built on such things : sporting events; music festivals, yoga weekss, yoghurt weaving retreats (for the telmarketers).

@Langerzug, @Dave of the Marmottes, very good point.

But perhaps the event move every couple years? After all, gay or straight, they may want to ski different mountains.

I too, enjoy watching the “additional colour” if I happen upon such events. Not sure I’ll go there if I know ahead of time there will be extra large number of blokes there (not to mention the fact those blokes are off limit to me Toofy Grin )

@Dave of the Marmottes, having many gay blokes as friends, I can assure you that binary thinking is definitely there for the blokes.

At the risk of igniting some fire storm, from our views on the fairer sex side, blokes are far more binary! Toofy Grin Not just gay blokes. Not just on sex either. Laughing Laughing

Snow pride has been in Tignes every March since 2008 - we’ve been out there while it’s been on, every one is super friendly that week and even though we just happen to be in town as part of a longer trip when it’s on, i always enjoy it. Less of that aggressive bravado and toxic masculinity from all the straight middle aged blokes desperate to relive something from their yoof but just end up acting like twonks and generally being rude.

Sure we're simple beings. Having said that I've started watching Euphoria for further enlightenment although my only real takeaway is to say thank feck I don't have teenagers.
