Skishow 'The Snow must go on'

Under the title "Schneetreiben - The Snow must go on" the Tourism Association, the Arlberger Bergbahnen Cable Car Co, the Ski School Arlberg, the Ski Akademie St. Christoph and the Ski Club Arlberg are presenting a spectacular ski and snowboard demo show.


In the "Karl-Schranz-Zielstadion", visitors will experience a multi-media time travel show with visual effects through the history of skiing. The topic of the show is the development of skiing and technology over the course of the decades.
