METROPOLIS

are doing Snowbombing 2011

Once again, we're hitting the awesome slopes, fantastic clubs, special secret venues and traditional Austrian bars of Mayrhofen, for the Greatest Show on Snow! Snowbombing 2011 is in its 11th year, and we're planning to make it biggest and best Snowbombing yet! Expect huge bands and DJs the likes of which the mountains have never seen before, and a suitably oiled crazy fancy dressed crowd and atmosphere to match. The bands will be polluting our ears with some seriously skilful live music, before the huge selection of DJs present us with their usual tuneful chaos into the early hours of every morning... and (more than likely) beyond!

Accommodation

How many festivals offer you the opportunity to book a bed within towel-flicking distance of an open-air rooftop Jacuzzi or state-of-the-art spa centre with heated swimming pools, beauty treatments and enough steamy sauna type behaviour to make you forget you're British!

With accommodation to suit all depth pockets - from cost conscious apartments to great value traditional guest houses and centrally located en suite rooms (most with balconies, incidentally)...to bling-tastic 4 star spa luxury sited next door to the main lift!

This page gives you an overview of the fantastic accommodation still available at Snowbombing. Please note all hotels listed do not have all room types available.

 





getting there

You can book the Snowbombing Road Trip or a coach from the UK with us. We also offer airport transfers.

Location

Mayrhofen is located 32 kilometres south of Jenbach, nestling at the end of the Ziller Valley and is the 3rd largest community in Tyrol. The town benefits from being surrounded by nine other resorts, namely Fugen, Hochfugen, Kaltenbach, Zell, Gerlos, Kunigsleiten, Finkenberg, Tux and the Hintertuxer Glacier.

The resort is close to several airports, the nearest being Innsbruck (a quick 30mins down the road) and others such as Salzberg and Munich are only a couple of hours away by coach transfer. This means you don't have to take an agonizing (but often fun) 24 hour coach journey, but simply jump on a short flight and swift transfer to take you to the incredible snowy Alps of Austria.

 


 

Coaches From the UK

Those of you with a fear of flying...or late comers who've missed the cheap flights...fear not, one of our coaches will deliver you from your nearest city to the festival doorstep for a paltry £103 upwards.

One set of coaches will be leaving the UK on Saturday 2nd April (in the evening) and arriving in Mayrhofen the day before the event on Sunday 3rd (customers on this coach will need to book an extra night's accommodation at the beginning of the event). The second set of coaches will be leaving on Sunday 3rd April and will be arriving on the first day of the event (Monday 4th April). All coaches will leave Mayrhofen on Saturday 9th April, returning to the UK on Sunday 10th April (in time for work on Monday).
