If you\u2019ve never been on one of these popular holidays then this is the one for you. Dave Cross spoke to Event Director Kevin Millins about this unique and mix of world class skiing and brilliant gay entertainment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hi Kevin, how would you sum up the European Ski Week?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a fabulous combination of world class skiing and the best in music, clubs, cabaret and dinning. The mix of guests is really good with ages ranging from 18 to some very active 70 somethings with people from many countries, cultures and backgrounds. Winter sports are an equaliser, so whether you\u2019re a student or CEO of a multinational brand, once you are sliding down the side of a mountain, you\u2019re mixing on an equal basis. Turning a small mountain hamlet into a gay village creates an amazing atmosphere, which is incredibly social, and everyone can bond over the shared interest of skiing. Over the week some real bonds and lifelong friends can be made.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us about when it started.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It started in 2009 with 50 guests and has grown year on year. We now have in excess of 1,000 guests coming from all over Europe and around the world. Last year we had guests from 49 different countries attend and we get lots returning again and again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where and when is the 2018 event?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For 2018, our 10th anniversary, we are in Les Menuires, Les 3 Vall\u00e9es in France, from 17th to 24th March.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the resort like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s brilliant, the best location, slap bang in the middle of Les 3 Vall\u00e9es. It\u2019s been described as the hidden jewel in Les 3 Vall\u00e9es crown and it works perfectly for our event. There are loads of bars, a perfect cabaret space, a huge pool and sauna complex for our pool party, three great clubs and best of all the Mayor and tourist board fully embrace our community and support the event.<\/p>\n<p>What can you tell us about the actual skiing? Is there something for beginners as well as more experienced skiers?<\/p>\n<p>The location makes it the perfect location for us. For advanced skiers it\u2019s possible to ski to every resort within Les 3 Vall\u00e9es in a single day and in the centre of the resort are many gentle \u2018green\u2019 runs, which are ideal for people making their first tentative steps onto the slopes. We have our own private ski school with gay or gay-friendly ski instructors who provide classes for all. If you have never skied before, by the end of the week you will be progressing towards that goal of a black run. For more experienced skiers and boarders there are advanced on piste and off piste classes. For those who are above ski school level, we have our own \u2018snow hosts\u2019 taking groups around the entire ski area. The groups are divided into two categories, those who want to lunch well, who will stop at some of the best mountainside restaurants, and those who want to make the most of their ski time by quick stops at (considerably cheaper) self serve restaurants on the mountain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about the accommodation on offer?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To create a great mix of people at an event you have to cater for all budgets. Our packages start from \u20ac399, which includes your week\u2019s accommodation, lift pass and event pass (all that\u2019s left to pay for is your skis, your food and your drinks) through to full board in a 5-star spa hotel, starting at \u20ac3,000 per person. There is of course every standard of accommodation in-between.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do we get in the package with the event pass?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The event pass is your passport to pleasure; it allows you access to every event that takes place throughout the week. The only exceptions are if the event has food, that has to be paid for and the pool party, which is only open to pass holders but a supplement has to be paid. You can ski all day then party from 4pm through till 5am every day, with a choice of at least four events every day. Plus it\u2019s not just about access to all the events, you get discounted drinks in many of the bars, discounted meals in restaurants both on the mountain and in the village, discounted ski hire and many other offers from the various shops throughout the resort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you tell us about the day time events?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nothing beats our Apr\u00e9s Ski Events. It\u2019s the heartbeat of EGSW and always generates incredible atmospheres. All the hosted groups and the ski school classes finish their day just in time to deliver hundreds of thirsty skiers and boarders directly into the party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And what about the night time events, parties and entertainment?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For our evening events we take over the resort clubs exclusively for our pass holders. We fly over DJs, dancers, cabaret acts and singers and install extensive production throughout. For hardcore partiers, there\u2019s the after-hours parties and you can party on right through to 5am, giving you a couple of hours kip before the first lift opens. This year we\u2019re excited to announce, alongside a whole host of other major European clubbing brands, one of the USA\u2019s biggest gay event brands, Masterbeat. This is the first time they\u2019ve ventured to European soil, so we\u2019re pretty excited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you book everything \u2013 flights, accommodation and passes \u2013 all in one go as a package on your website?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our online system allows you to book everything in one go, paying only a small deposit and the balance closer to the event, or if you would prefer in monthly instalments. If you are undecided about something you can log into your account later and add various options to the booking at a later date. There are tons of extras and this gives you time to decide what you and your friends might want to do. The only aspect of your trip we don\u2019t provide are flights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What else do we need to know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re excited to be working with Boyz magazine this year, meaning your readers benefit from a \u20ac40 discount on the cost of an event pass.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Event highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The European Ski Week is packed with loads of events every single day you are there with day time skiing and parties plus some brilliant club nights. Here\u2019s just a few to whet your ski appetite.The Welcome Party<\/p>\n<p>Reunite with old friends and make a load of new ones at the first big club night party where the theme is to wear your national colours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Group Lunges\/Mountain Lunches<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every morning at 9.15am the brilliant Lady Galore and her megaphone leads a group warm up that is both fun and essential to get the blood pumping. Plus EGSW works with 15 amazing mountain restaurants across the resort, perfect for lunch!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snow Hosts and Ski School<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From Sunday to Thursday the fabulous Snow Hosts will be taking groups on tours of Les 3 Vall\u00e9es, the best way to learn your way around. Plus there\u2019s a whole school of gay or gay friendly instructors all there to help you no matter what level.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daily Apr\u00e8s Ski<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These daily open air parties from 4pm in the centre of Croisette draw huge crowds and are described as the heartbeat of EGSW, not to be missed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Night time parties<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This year there are too many to list here so full details are on the website but all of them come packed with big name DJs and performers. Just some of the club brands are Klub from the Ku Group London, Bear Necessity from Amsterdam, Masterbeat from the USA and Hustlaball, plus there\u2019s daily cabaret and that infamous Pool Party.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/boyz.co.uk\/your-guide-to-the-european-gay-ski-week-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the article on the Boyz website.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"kc-elm kc-css-209844 kc_row\">\n<div class=\"kc-row-container kc-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-645511 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"kc-col-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-382632 kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.europeangayskiweek.com\/wp\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Press-Telegraph.png\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" \/>    <\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-802940 kc_text_block\">\n<p>\n<em>Posted by The Telegraph, Travel. 08 Nov 2017<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>From pool parties to cabaret nights, we take a peek at what goes on at European Gay Ski Week \u2013 the biggest gay winter sports and music festival in the Alps.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The annual week-long festival celebrates all things LGBT in the French resort of Les Menuires with access to the giant Trois Vall\u00e9es ski area.<\/p>\n<p>The 2018 event, taking place from March 17 \u2013 24 will double as a 10th birthday celebration for the festival.

Ever since Steps released the Heartbeat video, we\u2019ve imagined ourselves up a mountain, with dreadlocks akin to Faye Tozer\u2019s, draped in fur, casually cruising our way down icy slopes and drinking hot chocolate in some little log cabin at the bottom. When presented with the opportunity to make this our reality at European Gay Ski Week \u2013 minus the fur, dreads and rescuing H from angry dwarves \u2013 we jumped at the chance. We\u2019d just actually have to learn how to ski without killing ourselves in the process.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Making sure we had beyond adequate travel insurance in place \u2013 we were mildly terrified of ending up with plaster cast legs elevated in a sling for a month or two\u2026 steady \u2013 we packed our finest winter wardrobe for a week in Alpe d\u2019Huez. A hop, skip and a short plane journey to France with a coach transfer ascending tiny, windy roads to a winter paradise and you\u2019re there. The resort instantly made us feel like we were in a Christmas card, which obviously excited us greatly even though it wasn\u2019t December, and made us realise we were on our very first winter break. Damn, we love snow.<\/p>\n<p>European Gay Ski Week offer a fantastic range of activities, both to ease you into the experience and to help acquaint you with the friends you\u2019ll be soon to make, and meeting our hot French ski instructor on the first day of ski school was a sure sign of a great week ahead. Starting off on the baby slopes and learning the basics: falling over for the first time, falling over on purpose to be helped up by the hot instructor, riding our first ski lift, skiing our first course with a level of control, going fast, not going arse over tit on a more regular basis, feeling the wind against you as learn to enjoy the speed, well, it was all pure exhilaration at its finest. Progressing through difficultly of slope on a daily basis and being pushed to do your best in a supportive environment was so much fun. In terms of physical activity, yes we certainly had our fair share of an aching body using muscles we didn\u2019t know we had, but it was a rewarding ache. The long soaks in the bath in our lovely hotel at the end of the day was something to very much look forward to and completely deserved. Attending ski school every day was a routine we quickly got into and spending our lunch breaks in a restaurant halfway down a slope with the rest of the class is just brilliant fun. A shared experience such as learning to ski with the wonderful, likeminded company that being at EGSW offers is unadulterated joy. Plus, finishing each day at the Apr\u00e8s-ski party to drink and dance with all ability skiers and boarders is a ridiculously fun way of meeting everyone, seeing faces you recognise from a certain gentleman\u2019s application and winding down from your day\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Or more, winding up for the evening ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One thing that the people at European Gay Ski Week know how to do is throw a party and every night you are offered the chance to hear fantastic DJs in action, see tremendous cabaret and be immersed in a top notch nightlife in this picturesque winter wonderland. We were mindful of not getting too messy, as we were enjoying the lessons so much and didn\u2019t want to impact on the learning process, but we loved arranging to meet our new friends and go dancing in our newfound mountain home. It solidified the friendships made in the day, seeing everyone out at night, and made for so many ridiculous stories at ski school. Plus, doing the walk of shame in a mountainous, snowy paradise isn\u2019t really that shameful.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the week coming to an end and our final lessons of ski school over, we had a day to ourselves on the slopes. Deciding to brave the more advanced slopes with a snowboarder friend we\u2019d made was our objective for our final day \u2013 a risky move, maybe, but we felt pretty confident with our newfound ability \u2013 and though we were slightly apprehensive of the unknown, we managed to achieve our goal of going from the green, beginners slopes at the start of the week to the more exciting red slopes by the end (it goes green, blue, red and black in terms of colour\/difficulty). An achievement we made sure to tell everyone we\u2019d met that week at the final afternoon Apr\u00e8s-ski, where everyone congregated for one last snowy hurrah before all making our way down the mountain in one homogenous mass of half cut gays, skiing and boarding in harmony. Yes, it was certainly an experience we\u2019ll never forget.<\/p>\n<p>Our time at European Gay Ski Week over, numbers exchanged, new friends made, rented ski boots returned and our winter wardrobe packed away, we realised this is something we\u2019d love to do again. We\u2019d do it in a Heartbeat. If you\u2019ve always fancied learning to ski but never felt like you\u2019ve had an opportunity, we highly recommend a EGSW adventure. And if you already know how to ski and want to have a great time somewhere beautiful with people who know how to party; well you know what to do\u2026<\/p>\n<p>GT stayed at the H\u00f4tel Alp\u2019Azur in the Alpe d\u2019Huez resort as part of European Gay Ski Week.

Over the past four decades, a quiet revolution has begun, inspired by Aspen\u2019s Gay Ski Week in 1977, and big-name mountain resorts around the world now compete to host gay ski weeks, from Whistler to Utah, Austria to France and Switzerland to New Zealand.<\/p>\n<p>Whistler\u2019s WinterPRIDE is the longest-running event in the resort\u2019s calendar, attracting 3,000 gay and lesbian winter holidaymakers and generating C$9m (\u00a35m) for the British Columbia economy. European Gay Ski Week reports that its 1,000 attendees spend 30 per cent more per head than average holidaymakers to Alpe d\u2019Huez, while S\u00f6lden\u2019s Gay Snow Happening is smaller, attracting around 600 gay holidaymakers, but still draws \u20ac1m to the resort.<\/p>\n<p>However, economic benefits aren\u2019t the whole story. Jim Guttau, spokesperson for Aspen Gay Ski Week (gayskiweek.com), a not-for-profit event that attracts five thousand people each year, says: \u201cThe mountain residents see the benefits, from promoting tolerance to the economic impact. Youth in the valley have thanked our foundation for hosting the event \u2013 it gave them a sense of belonging. Aspen, its residents and holidaymakers are extremely supportive of the event, as evidenced by the rainbow flags hanging from every lamp-post and the spectators \u2013 heterosexual and homosexual \u2013 that attend events like our Downhill Costume Contest.\"<\/p>\n<p>Aspen\u2019s event \u2013 along with that in Arosa, Switzerland (arosa-gayskiweek.com) \u2013 draws to a close this weekend. As greater acceptance of gay people around the world continues, why are gay-specific holidays important? Kevin Millins, head of Pure Organisation which operates European Gay Ski Week in Alpe d\u2019Huez, explains: \u201cWhile it\u2019s great that the world is far more accepting of the LGBT community, not everywhere you go to is guaranteed to be like this. It\u2019s simple: I want to be sure I\u2019ll enjoy my holidays, which in my opinion are about relaxing and socialising. It\u2019s about being able to go to a destination and participate in an activity you love, at an event where you can be yourself and have no concerns whatsoever.\"<\/p>\n<p>For participants such as Skip Evans, a 44-year-old civil servant from Australia who has attended Whistler WinterPRIDE three years running, it\u2019s about community. He said: \u201cGay ski weeks provide an opportunity for like-minded people with similar interests, but who are often from often far-flung places, to get together and enjoy their sport, meet new friends and have some fun.\"<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to some perceptions of gay ski weeks as mountain \u201cgay ghettos\", Evans says it\u2019s the inclusive LGBT-friendly but not exclusive nature of the events that are so attractive. Most gay ski weeks are delighted to welcome straight allies, who sometimes accompany LGBT attendees, especially during the free on-mountain guiding programmes that many gay ski weeks provide.<\/p>\n<p>The guides are usually volunteers, such as Canadian airline employee Michael Muller. For him, the priorities are simple: \u201cSki terrain is number one; the parties are number two. The country and culture also factor, but it\u2019s fun to have different experiences and do this with ski buddies I\u2019ve made at other gay ski weeks.\"<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the outlandish, dazzling on-mountain costumes, one thing is a given: gay ski weeks sure know how to party, on-mountain and off: there are pool parties, comedy and burlesque shows, wine tastings and top club brands and DJ talent. This year London cabaret club Madame JoJo\u2019s will feature. \u201cThere is nothing quite like it anywhere in the Alps,\" says Millins.<\/p>\n<p>Despite my two decades of snowboarding experience, taking part in WinterPRIDE\u2019s \u201cSkiOUT\" (named after the local gay ski club) is one of my most memorable descents. Surrounded by cheers, whooping and carnival whistles, bystander skiers stopped to serenade the mountain parade with an impromptu \u201cski-pole applause\", the tap-tap-tap echoing around us. This is a world away from the homophobic \u201cgays on trays\" slur of the 1990s \u2013 and the mountains are all the better for it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/travel\/skiing\/gay-ski-weeks-a-ski-sector-that-is-in-the-pink-9072622.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the article on the Independent website.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"kc-elm kc-css-866916 kc_row\">\n<div class=\"kc-row-container kc-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-wrap-columns\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-19927 kc_column kc_col-sm-12\">\n<div class=\"kc-col-container\">\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-896217 kc_shortcode kc_single_image\">\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.europeangayskiweek.com\/wp\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Press-GayWelcome.png\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" \/>    <\/div>\n<div class=\"kc-elm kc-css-821316 kc_text_block\">\n<p>\n<em>15 January, 2017.

Posted by Peter Roche \u2013 GCN Magazine.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cHey, are you here for gay ski week? Where do we get the bus?\u201d I sheepishly asked the cute guy I spied using Grindr in Geneva airport. There wasn\u2019t any shortage of people to ask; the airport looked like the Folsom street fair with an abundance of rainbow flags and muscled men.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust over there, come on I\u2019ll show you\u201d he answered, with a warm friendliness that we would become accustomed to over the course of the week. The buses arrived and the airport was emptied of its mirth. I imagine it returned to its regular air of people rushing about their business.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019d barely left the car park before a particularly rowdy group of beefy hunks (who it transpired were the performers for the weekend and, were staying in our apartment block ensuring there was never a dull moment) began to blare the Spice Girls and other such classics as they challenged one another to do somersault\u2019s from the luggage racks of the bus.<\/p>\n<p>People cracked open beers and passed around assorted duty free spirits. The party had begun in earnest. Talk quickly turned to what events were on that night, and people worried about having time to get showered and freshen up before hitting the welcome night parties, all four welcome parties in fact, and here we were thinking we were going on a ski break!<\/p>\n<p>I was told it took 90 minutes to reach Avoriaz from Geneva Airport, although I could have sworn it was no more than half an hour with all the new friends we made on the bus. Upon arrival the professional staff were on hand to help everyone to their accommodation and get checked in promptly. Avoriaz is a stunning resort, high in the Portes du Soleil. Perhaps most magical about it is that it is a ski-in ski-out resort, meaning that there are no cars and all of the accommodation lets you leave your building in your skis and head straight to the slope.<\/p>\n<p>Horse-drawn carts and sleighs are your only mode of taxi and the architecture is a bizarre but beautiful mix of classic alpine build with a futuristic twist. The ski pass gives holidaymakers access to a vast number of ski lifts and slopes of all difficulty. In our week I don\u2019t believe we explored more than a fifth of the network. It was my first time skiing, and my partner wasn\u2019t much better, but we found it a really gentle learning curve.<\/p>\n<p>Outside our apartment was the \u2018green\u2019 baby slope where we found our snow legs like a pair of new born calves. When we felt comfortable there were the slightly more challenging \u2018blue\u2019 slope was just a minute away, where we practiced gaining some speed and even chanced the ski ramp or two. From there the sky\u2019s the limit, but I can\u2019t say we got very close to that limit. The more adventurous can attempt skiing to nearby villages such as Morzine or Les Prodains.<\/p>\n<p>The particularly bold can attempt \u2018the Swiss wall\u2019, a steep and bumpy \u2013 yet wide \u2013 slope that leads down to Champ\u00e9ry. We learnt the first day to hit the slopes early and finish in time for the apres-ski, which kicks off around 4pm in the afternoon. The centre of the resort is transformed into a gay winter wonderland with drag queens and gogo boys on a huge stage alongside DJs spinning all the glorious dance and euro pop you could hope for.<\/p>\n<p>From there people pile into the numerous quaint and tasty restaurants for a bite. For a tourist resort the food was really rather good, and for those on a budget there are two super markets including a ubiquitous Carrefour. After dinner the only questions is: \u2018which party is that guy you\u2019ve been eying up on the slopes going to? Some of the more memorable parties included the Pool Party in the water park (which my partner dubbed \u2018Gay Soup\u2019), and the Erotica party which was populated by men in harnesses, jockstraps and balaclavas.<\/p>\n<p>I should also note that although the ski week consists manly of gay men, there were quite a few ladies in attendance too. A special programme of events caters for the ladies that ensures everyone is kept titillated and entertained; from the women\u2019s sauna night to burlesque shows and even a sexy circus. Outside the cost of the event pass, which varies depending on the type of accommodation you settle on, we found we didn\u2019t have very much expenses.<\/p>\n<p>The pass gives you a significantly discounted lift pass, equipment rental, transfer to and from the airport, accommodation, and a free shot at all the parties. There are also free organised ski groups with hunky guides, a nice bonus and other people who are going solo on the holiday. The drinks aren\u2019t much more expensive in Ireland, and a few places even gave discounts if you\u2019re part of Gay Ski Week. We even met a few Canadians and American\u2019s who came every year as it worked out cheaper than going skiing in their own countries!<\/p>\n<p>Countless falls, bruises, laughs, drinks and dances later, and it was time to go home. I\u2019d guess that eighty percent of the people we met on the trip weren\u2019t Gay Ski Week virgins, and we could see why. It was the best holiday we have ever been on.
