BRISTOL SHUTTLE
With Bristol being the hub for the festival this year, and accommodation options being city centre based, we will be running coach shuttle to and from the event to ensure easy transfers to and from the festival. We will be running earlier transfers for competitors, with later transfers for standard ticket holders.
CLOAk ROOMS
There will be an onsite cloak room facility from 1PM. This will be running until the end of the event and manned all day by our event team.
TIMINGS
The main event will be running from 1PM - 1AM. However, racing athlete’s are likely to be asked to be at the event from 9AM -11AM for practice. We will be running shuttle buses from Bristol to Gloucester Ski and Snowboard Centre to reflect these timings.
TICKET AND PACKAGE INFO
This year we are providing full festival packages at the point of sale to make your festival planning quick and easy. You will be able to book your pre-party, festival ticket, shuttle, accommodation and travel all in one place.

FREESTYLE
With a chance to warm up at the start of the day, qualifications will begin in a jam session format with the intent to make this a fun session for all, squeezing in as many laps as possible within the qualification time period. The airbag will be back again, while not directly scored for your airbag tricks, judges will be taking into consideration the tricks you are trying!
Successful finalists will then compete head to head in a big hitting final in front of the 2000 person crowd as the sun sets across Mount Gloucester.
