About

In 2010 New Zealand Gay Ski Week celebrates their 8th annual birthday party in The Adventure Capital Of The World.

This year they are expecting people to jet in from around the world and play in the snow.

Non-skiers are welcome and more are turning up each year! 

Believe it or not – the week actually revolves around skiing/boarding or anything else you might want to do on the slopes. But of course we want to have some other fun:

2010 highlight events: The Topp Twins, Welcome Party, Retro Bowling, Snow Gaymes, DNA Magazine Hot Pool Party, Karaoke Night, Buff Party, The Big Gay Out and the closing WHITE OUT party.

New Zealand Gay Ski Week always attracts top international talent for your entertainment. Previous International Guests include: Bob Downe, DJ Kate Munroe, Sydney Stonewall Diva’s Candy Box and Polly, DJ Dan Murphy, DJ Alan Thompson, DJ Starli, Buffy & Bimbo and off course the one with the biggest meow in the business DJ Miss Kitty Glitter.

So get ready for the biggest gay alpine party in the southern hemisphere.
