Today marks exactly one month until Thredbo Resort’s 2024 winter season begins on June 8, 2024.

The Winter 2024 Opening Weekend is set to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, kicking off with the launch of the brand-new Thredbo Alpine Coaster, the first days of skiing and snowboarding and non-stop celebrations.

Thredbo Alpine Coaster | New For Winter 2024!

The Southern Hemisphere’s first-ever Alpine Coaster will diversify Thredbo’s year-round recreational offering as an all-weather, action-packed way to experience the mountain. At 1.5km in length, passengers can control their speed of up to 40km/h as they travel along a mix of uphill and downhill tracks featuring a tunnel, bridges and circles that traverse the alpine environment.

Construction on the Thredbo Alpine Coaster commenced in October 2023 and is on track to be completed later this month. The track structure has now been fully installed and the final stages of construction are underway including the installation of electrical and control systems, the addition of walkways and handrails, finishing details on the top and bottom stations, fencing, site cleaning and revegetation.

As part of the construction, the Alpine Coaster will undergo safety testing by independent third-party engineers, ready for the first customers in winter this year.

Winter 2024 Opening Weekend

Kicking off on June 8, Thredbo’s Winter 2024 Opening Weekend is set to be the biggest yet. In addition to scoring the first rides on the Alpine Coaster, guests can enjoy the first days of skiing and snowboarding plus a huge lineup of live music, entertainment, dining experiences, family activities and more.

From dancing underneath the fireworks at the first Alpine Bar Après Party of the season to kicking back on the deck at a Merritts Mountain House DJ session or celebrating in true Thredbo style at the annual Long Lunch presented by Pommery, the celebrations are non-stop all weekend.

Plus, there’s plenty of fun planned for all ages this opening weekend with a stacked family itinerary featuring giant games, arts & crafts, Lindt Chocolate s’mores making, fireworks, face painting, alpine bungee and more.
