Celebrating its 10th anniversary this winter, European Gay Ski Week returns to Les Menuires in France between March 17-24, 2018 for what is one of the biggest, most spectacular and best produced LGBT winter sports and music festival in the world.
European Gay Ski Week (EGSW) delivers a unique LGBT winter sports experience combining the fantastic ski and snowboarding offered by the world’s largest ski area, Les 3 Vallées, with great entertainment featuring high calibre cabaret, parties hosted by international clubs and DJs, fine dining, a pool party and signature EGSW open air après ski.
“The atmosphere is incredible. Think of the Folie Douce times ten and you’ll get a sense of what our après ski is like. And we’ve put together a full programme so everyone has a super time along with chalet, hotel and apartment accommodation to suit all budgets in a resort where everyone is very welcoming and friendly,” said Kevin Millins, EGSW’s event director,
Presented by Pure Organisation, EGSW is expected to attract 1,200 people from around the world.
Festival highlights include daily group lunges with Lady Galore – and her megaphone – who gets everyone warmed up before they hit the slopes; allocated private dining space on terraces for EGSW pass holders in 15 mountain restaurants in Courchevel, Meribel, Orelle and Val Thorens; Free group skiing and boarding with 20 fabulous Snow Hosts who will show EGSW pass holders around Les 3 Vallées; EGSW ski school with gay friendly instructors from ESF and Pros Neige who will run group and private lessons and open air après ski from 4pm daily which is regarded as the heartbeat of EGSW. There will also be music from some of the world’s best clubs and DJs and daily cabaret nights featuring some of Europe’s top gay acts like La Diva Live, Nicollete Street and Patty Pam Pam;
Given pricing for accommodation and a ski lift and event pass starts from €399.00, EGSW will be oversubscribed so booking early is advisable at www.europeangayskiweek.com
