As anticipation builds among skiers, snowboarders and winter holidaymakers, Thredbo is laying the foundations for what promises to be one of its most exciting seasons yet. From industry leadership and snowmaking innovation to world-class events and family-friendly entertainment, the resort is ready to welcome visitors back to the Snowy Mountains.
Thredbo Hosts Landmark Snow Summit
A major highlight of May was Thredbo's role as host of the Snow Summit, bringing together leaders from across Australia's alpine and tourism industries.
The event provided an important platform for collaboration, allowing resort operators, tourism organisations, government representatives and industry partners to discuss the opportunities and challenges shaping the future of Australian snow tourism.
Hosting the Summit reinforced Thredbo's position as a leading voice within the snow industry and demonstrated its ongoing commitment to the growth and sustainability of alpine tourism across the country.
The gathering also highlighted the vital role that Australia's ski resorts play in supporting regional economies, creating employment opportunities and attracting domestic and international visitors to alpine destinations.
Snowmaking Delivers a Strong Start to Winter

Thredbo's renowned snowmaking team has already made significant progress, taking advantage of favourable weather conditions throughout May to begin building snow coverage across key areas of the resort.
One of the most important assets in Thredbo's winter operations is its advanced All-Weather Snowmaking Unit located on Friday Flat. This innovative system has already produced a substantial base of snow, ensuring skiing and snowboarding can commence from the very first day of the season.
The ability to create snow independently of traditional weather patterns provides greater certainty for guests planning winter holidays and contributes to a more reliable start to the season.
In addition to Friday Flat, the resort's extensive mountain-wide snowmaking network has been activated whenever conditions have allowed, helping establish strong foundations for quality snow coverage throughout the winter months.
Innovation Enhancing the Alpine Experience
Modern snowmaking technology has become an increasingly important part of Australia's ski industry, allowing resorts to maximise every opportunity presented by favourable temperatures.
At Thredbo, ongoing investment in snowmaking infrastructure continues to improve the guest experience by delivering more consistent conditions and extending access to terrain earlier in the season.
These advancements not only benefit experienced skiers and snowboarders but also provide confidence for first-time visitors, families and travellers planning alpine holidays well in advance.
Reliable snow conditions remain one of the key factors influencing winter travel decisions, making snowmaking technology an essential component of the modern mountain experience.
A Huge Opening Weekend Awaits

Winter sports fans will have the opportunity to meet Australian Olympians during special meet-and-greet sessions and poster signings, providing a unique chance to connect with some of the nation's most accomplished snow athletes.
Families are also well catered for, with a wide range of free activities, entertainment and community events planned throughout the opening celebrations.
Live music, festive village entertainment and plenty of alpine hospitality will ensure there is something for visitors of all ages.
Why Thredbo Remains One of Australia's Favourite Snow Destinations

The resort offers Australia's longest ski runs, modern lift infrastructure, premium accommodation options and a diverse range of dining experiences, making it a popular choice for winter holidays.
