The most significant European winter music festival, “The Big
Snow“, moves from Andorra to Serbia and will be organised at Mt.
Kopaonik on March 23-29, 2012.
The Festival was launched two years ago by the largest global
tourist agency, Thomas Cook. The EXIT team and the Association of Hotels
of Mt. Kopaonik, supported by MK Mountain Resorts, public company
Skijališta Srbije and the Ministry of Economy and Regional Development
of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, will join the organisation
of the Festival as of 2012
This music event will gather renowned global, regional and
local music names, who will attract several thousands of guests from all
over Europe. Especially for visitors for Serbia and the region, the
Festival organisers have provided exceptionally favourable accommodation
arrangements.
In the last two years, “The Big Snow“ has grown into one of
the most prominent European winter music festivals. With its
entertainment capacities and beautiful nature, Mt. Kopaonik has been
selected as the destination where this Festival can continue with its
fast growth and development, and help the development of winter tourism
of Serbia. “The Big Snow“ Festival is designed to provide good music and
winter sports lovers with an exceptional opportunity to combine their
two passions into good entertainment, with the contribution of the
unique atmosphere of Mt. Kopaonik, the best preserved winter secret of
Europe – underlined Ms Teresa Walsh, Managing Director of Club 18-30 in
Thomas Cook.
It is estimated that, owing to The Big Snow Festival, Serbian
tourism will record revenues of more than EUR5 million in the next three
years, while the value of international promotion of skiing tourism of
Serbia will be several times higher.
Bearing in mind the relevance of foreign and local partners
participating in the organisation of the Festival at Mt. Kopaonik, this
event will certainly help position Serbia at the map of important
European skiing destinations, particularly at the market of Western
Europe.
It is important to note that The Big Snow Festival will
significantly contribute to revenues from tourism in local and foreign
currencies, as well as to the promotion of mountain tourism of Serbia in
Europe and the world. In addition, we expect this event to enable young
people from Serbia and the world to rediscover why Mt. Kopaonik is one
of the most beautiful mountains in the region we can be proud of –
underlined Mr Goran Petković, State Secretary in the Ministry of Economy
and Regional Development, adding that it is privilege for our country
to host this Festival at Mt. Kopaonik, particularly when a global
tourist agency such as Thomas Cook recognises the opportunity for
cooperation with partners from Serbia and decides to relocate this
Festival to our country.
The Festival will gather more than 100 music performers, led
by the famous Basement Jaxx, double winners of the prestigious award for
the best global music act. They will be accompanied by DJ Fresh, Eddy
Tample Morris, Judge Jules, Micky Slim and other foreign performers,
while the local scene will be represented by Disciplin A Kitchme, Rambo
Amadeus, Darkwood Dub, Eyesburn, Vrooom, and many others…
It is important to note that this is only a part of a line-up
of musicians who will perform at the popular Mt. “Kop” on March 23-29,
2012, and that the whole line-up will be announced at the beginning of
the winter season, in early December 2011.
As of today, when the promotion of the Festival in Serbia
starts officially, a seven-day travel arrangement, including
accommodation and a set of tickets, will be available at a gift price of
EUR89, or EUR129 with a ski pass included. Bearing in mind
exceptionally attractive prices, top quality of the Festival and
vicinity of the destination, the ski season will be most attractive at
Mt. Kopaonik this winter.
