COMEBACK OF THE SNOW ON THE BEACH IN IMAGES!
🌊🌊 Many spectators answered the call for the grand return of the Snow on the Beach at Mont SUTTON on Saturday, April 5.🌊🌊
Now in its 13th year after a 5-year hiatus, this quintessential springtime event was a sell-out for crossings of the lake at the foot of the slopes! Co-organized by XLTRAX Productions, the event delighted young and old alike, and offered plenty of entertainment for all. From the Poutine Bar to the 2026 Burton Snowboard Demo, from alcohol-free Carlsberg beer tastings to the Bromont Camper Van’s van tour, the atmosphere was festive, with a line-up of DJs in bonus to boost the crowd!
