The World’s biggest dry slope event returns for another year of competitions, nightlife and debauchery. Friday morning sees the competition kick off in full flow with two BUCS events, the Ski
Slalom and Snowboard Giant Slalom. In the afternoon is the
Syndicate Slopestyle, which links together the famous Hillend kicker with their top selection of rails.

After a long day, the party moves from the side of the slope into one of Edinburgh’s largest venues. City Nightclub hosts the huge Friday Night Party, with top DJs, dirty dancefloors, and dreams of
naughtiness.

The saturday begins with the infamous Hill End Giant Slalom. While on the other slope the thrills and spills of the Boarder X will be
going on. To finish up, you can see top racers and freestylers
strutting their stuff side by side. The Rome/4Frnt Big Air or team dual slalom... the choice is yours.

The event is spectator friendly, so as well as the competitions you’ll find the Syndicate shopping complex, an on slope bar, food options and DJs bashing out the beats.
The event culminates with the BUDs Ball, a black tie event complete with awards ceremony and huge headline entertainment. So come join us for the best weekend of your life.
