To bring newcomers to snow whilst offering extra value to those who already participate.
FIS World Snow Day
World Snow Day is the second phase of the 'Bring Children to the Snow' campaign. World Snow Day looks beyond the FIS membership to the wider snow sports community. It seeks to motivate children aged from 4-14 by encouraging all stakeholders to celebrate all things snow around the world simultaneously. In short, World Snow Day is the biggest day on snow all year. And World Snow Day is not a one-off event but is planned to be staged annually for years to come.
