Dirty Sanchez, GLC, Rawkus Noize and
Jaguar Skills took no prisoners as they wrapped up the last night of the
first
ever Big Snow Festival in predictably raucous style.
The supremely laid back resort of
Arinsal in Andorra
played host to hundreds of festival goers gathered for seven solid days
of
mountainous music, snowboarding, fun and mayhem with over 80 per cent of
the
crowd experiencing skiing and snowboarding for the first time.
Kicking off with Calvin Harris and
Judge Jules launching the first night of The Big Snow Festival, their
explosive
sets had everyone mashing up the dance floor ‘til the sun came up but
many agree, the best was yet to come.
Offering a truly
memorable
experience, Thursday saw the Dare 2b pro team demo’ing their tricks at
The Big Air Demo followed by an unbelievable mountainside party
delivered by EddieTempleMorris,
Stereo:
Type and Pendulum DJs. As the sun set, the mountainside lit up with
search lights, in-the-snow graphics and an awe-inspiring torch light
show courtesy
of Arinsal’s finest ski instructors. The party then continued at the
Surf club with Brandon Block’s Old Skool Disco – complete with
proper school uniforms on show and an old skool music set to match.
Every day of the week
was
jam-packed with an après ski party courtesy of Loaded magazine, VIP
rooms
hosted by Kiss FM, 80s fondue “cheese” night, fancy dress on the
slopes and DJ sets courtesy of LeeRoy Thornhill, Mickey Slim, Darren
Jay, MC
Fearless and Toddla T to name a few.
