Q285 - Q Quiz: Win Snowbombing tix

Comments

Q has teamed up with the good people at Snowbombing and Volvo to offer one lucky reader a pair of tickets to Europe's premier winter festival. Taking place in the Austrian village of Mayrhofen (bless you!) from 5-10 April, Snowbombing boasts a top notch line-up that includes The Enemy, Doves, Editors, Friendly Fires, Wild Beasts and more. Not to mention, of course, a week of snow sports and some Olympian après-ski activities.

If you want an experience of a lifetime, you can opt to go to Mayrhofen via the Snowbombing Rally, driven by Volvo. You (and a friend) will take a road trip in a snazzy Volvo C30 R-Design, which begins on Saturday, 3 April, at Dover with a ferry ride to Calais before driving to Frankfurt where you will stay overnight at the legendary Cocoon club. From there you will be whisked to Mayrhofen where the myriad delights of Snowbombing await. Eat your heart out, Clarkson.

If you should choose to fly, the winner and friend will be flown to Austria (includes transfer to Mayrhofen) on 7 April to spend three days at Snowbombing, departing 10 April, with accommodation, wristbands for the event, ski hire and passes included. For full details go to www.snowbombing.com/en.
