About Snow Machine

Snow Machine isn’t just a ski festival, it’s an adventure.

We’re renowned for our epic combination of world-class snow, electrifying music performances, and an unforgettable “Après Ski All Day” atmosphere that transcends the ordinary. At night, our vibrant village main arena lights up like nothing else around it. Snow Machine does not simply represent a skiing trip or a music festival; it represents a merger of the two presented in mind-blowing ways that makes you rethink what a winter wonderland can be.

The Queenstown, Australia edition in 2023 was an unprecedented success, selling out months in advance. The Japanese editions of Snow Machine — which also includes a leg in Nagano’s Hakuba region — is garnering equally overwhelming demand. Two days after going on sale, 70% of packages have been sold even before the artist lineup has even been revealed!
