Snow Music Week
The biggest New Year's Eve festival in the Dolomites
About Snow Music Week
Snow Music Week: Music and skiing in the heart of the Dolomites
Snow Music Week is the winter event that transforms San Martino di Castrozza, in the municipality of Primiero San Martino di Castrozza (Province of Trento, Trentino-Alto Adige), into the capital of snow-filled entertainment during the end-of-year holidays. For eleven days, from December 26th to January 5th, the resort at the foot of the Pale di San Martino pulses with the rhythm of slope-side warm-ups, wild après-ski, and parties that go on until sunrise.
A three-part daily format
The beauty of Snow Music Week is that the party never stops. The formula revolves around three daily appointments: morning slope sessions with warm-ups at Malghetta Tognola and Rifugio Tognola, afternoon après-ski at the resort's venues (El Barisel, Campo Base Tognola, Bar Tabià), and evening dance parties with DJ sets and themed events. Cult favorites like the Fluo Party, Trap Night, and live radio broadcasts by Radio Piterpan are all part of the experience.
The New Year's Eve of the Dolomites
The most anticipated moment is New Year's Eve at the Palazzetto dello Sport, the event's most iconic location, decked out with spectacular sets, a professional festival-grade sound and video system, and thousands of people dancing together. The New Year's Eve dinner and the midnight countdown serve as the prelude to a night of music that continues until morning. To wrap up the week, there is the Exclusive Closing Party at altitude, offering stunning views of the Pale di San Martino.
Why it's worth it
Snow Music Week combines two worlds that rarely meet: the authentic mountain spirit of the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites and the high-octane energy of a music festival. It is the ideal destination for those who want to ski by day and dance by night in one of the most picturesque locations in Trentino. The event is organized by the association Primiero CreAttiva APS with the support of the ApT San Martino di Castrozza, Primiero e Vanoi.
