Festival Crowd Header

GROOVE CAIRNGORM returns for its second outing over the weekend of Fri 24th and Sat 25th of February 2017, hosted in partnership with CairnGorm Mountain Ltd.

Launched last year as the UK’s first resort based snowsports festival, GROOVE CAIRNGORM combined winter snowsports, along with a selection of DJs and acoustic acts performing over two stages up the mountain, followed by an Apres-ski party until the early hours at Badaguish Outdoor Centre featuring acts including Grandmaster Flash, Hot Chip and Radio 1’s Monki amongst many others.
 
“We are delighted to be taking Groove back to the Mountain next year. After the incredible success and positive feedback from our inaugural festival we are looking forward to recreating some of the magic again in 2017 with a winter snowsports festival on home snow that doesn’t break the bank” said one of the Groove founders Dougie Brown
 
Emma Beagrie, Senior Marketing Manager at Natural Retreats added “Natural Retreats CairnGorm Mountain is the perfect location for a snowsports festival and after the success of this year’s event we’re excited to host what is sure to be another great weekend in 2017.”

The full 2017 line-up will be announced in the coming weeks. 

 

Tickets for this year’s festival go on sale Friday 30th September at 10am, and have been kept at 2016 prices. Tickets are available from www.groovecairngorm.co.uk
