MORE A CELEBRATION THAN A RACE
Events are based out of two of the region’s most popular resorts with Lake Crackenback Resort & Spa and Thredbo providing athletes the chance to holiday right in the heart of the action with Race HQ on the doorstep. All while taking in the 4.5-star luxury and experiencing the hospitality and local fare that only the Snowies region can deliver.

The Snowies Mulitsport Festival is supported by the NSW Government via its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.
