The storm is rolling in! Over 45cm forecast across the resort 🌨️
It’s official, Mother Nature is turning it on just in time for the long weekend. A powerful winter storm is barrelling towards the resort, and the forecast is calling for over 45cm of fresh snow. Yep, you read that right, over 45 centimetres of the good stuff.
And with temps set to drop, our snow guns will be firing overnight, topping up the cover to make sure there’s something for everyone when the lifts start spinning.
The best part? V8 is set to spin!
With a storm rolling in and snowmaking firing, the stage is set for a huge Opening Weekend at Perisher. Thanks to ideal sub-zero temps, we’ve had over 100 snow guns blazing, and our mountain ops team has been going full throttle—groomers working nonstop and every hand on deck to get the resort ready for first turns.
We’re excited to confirm there’ll be a carpet on Front Valley, offering a great space for families and first-timers to kick off the season in style.
And for those chasing features from day one, the Perisher Parks crew is building out a mini park on Front Valley, because who says you have to wait for mid-season to start sliding sideways?
And yes, the V8 is set to spin.
With fresh snow, snowmaking, and music pumping from PEAK Music Festival, this June long weekend is shaping up to be one of the best.
