We’ve booked for Zell am see in March. I always enjoy ski resort shows, be they torchlight processions, ski instructors showing their skills or fireworks. However I can’t see anything for Zell am see. Do they have any regular events does anyone know? It’s not a dealbreaker, obviously, but I was just wondering. Cheers
Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

A Google search of evening shows in ZAS, brings up somewhere called The Gentlemen's Club.
It looks quite entertaining - despite no sign of any torchlit processions...
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

There was a display when we were there a few years ago, and then a free bottle of bubbly for those who were keen at the end.
@JimboS, that looks great fun - bit too much like hard work for me after a day’s skiing!!
My googling hasn’t come up with anything so I assume there’s nothing on, which is a shame.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

@bambionskiis, we usually go to Zell in March, but usually the shows / night skiing have stopped a week or two previously. One year we did manage to see them doing a slalom on snow they had laid through the town centre, but I think that was probably the earliest we've been there (end Feb/ start March)
@Tubaski, ah ok thanks . That’s weird because resort is open for another month (we’re off beginning of March). Is snow for skiing ok then usually? What’s it like then? Cheers
Then you can post your own questions or snow reports...

I suspect the shows end then because the pitch they do them on is right at the bottom of the mountain so that bit does get slushy

@Tubaski, great thread link many thanks. The owner of the hotel apparently is a former ski instructor and does a weekly mountain tour for guests, so I’m guessing they’ll be a useful source of local info.
We’re off on 4 March. Hope you have a great time.
You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

Zell am See have an ice hockey team, if you're lucky they will be playing a match at home when you are there - you could buy tickets on the night at the door in the pre-covid days - not sure what the latest arrangements are. Schedule will be posted much closer to the time as the season progresses. Details here: https://alps.hockey/en/home-en/statistics/team?teamId=3324

@bambionskiis
Try the local tourist office, IME most tourist offices can supply a list of events over the season, I have just received an events list for Saalbach Hinterglem from their office
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.
