2010 Brits dates set

The Brits, Europe’s longest established winter festival and number one event on the British snowboarding and free-skiing returns to Laax in Switzerland from March 21 to 28.

 

The Brits is a unique, week-long winter festival that everyone should experience. Combining eight British Snowboard and Freeski Championship events including the Animal Slopestyle, SNO!zone Halfpipe and Trespass Snowboard/Skiercross and a musical juggernaut set to shake the pretty little Swiss resort to its very foundation.

 

Packages for the 2010 event start at £230 per person - including seven nights accommodation, seven days lift pass and an event pack containing an exclusive Brits Ignite beanie and Brits festival wristband, providing free entry to all of the club night shenanigans plus a bevy of discounts and event privileges. 

 

As well as saving you a tidy packet, the Brits also unites the UK’s top athletes such as X-Games Gold medallist, Jenny Jones and Olympic hopefuls Ben Kilner and Zoe Gillings with budding amateurs, kids and rookies. Giving all-comers the chance to compete for British titles and World-ranking points. All standards are welcome and competitors can pre-register online for any one or more disciplines.  

 

For 2010 they're also adding even more to the Après Sessions, so hold tight for some Home Run adrenaline-fuelled antics, Air Bag bravado, Highest Ollie posturing, free Demo Testing, plus some banging Live Acoustic Sets. The evening music menu will be covering all bases, with melodic flavours coming courtesy of internationally acclaimed solo artists, live bands and DJs that cross a spectrum of musical genres and styles. 

 

Previous artists to have graced The BRITS include exuberant Brit-hoppers The GO Team, US hip-hop legends Ugly Duckling, and cut ‘n’ paste maestro DJ Yoda to name a few. The music line-up set to tear the roof off the Brits 2010 will be announced shortly. For more info visit www.brits10.com
