Snowrow Arosa 2026: Where Winter Begins

Stay with us

There’s a moment at the start of winter that stays with you.

The first cold air. The first tracks in fresh snow. The first time music carries across the mountains instead of silence.

From 18 to 20 December 2026, that moment becomes something bigger.
For the first time in Switzerland, Elrow Snowrow arrives in Arosa, transforming the Alps into a three-day festival where skiing, music and atmosphere merge into one continuous experience.

This is not just an event. It’s how the season begins.

From First Lift to Last Track

Snowrow doesn’t follow a schedule, it flows.

Your day starts on the slopes, where the energy builds slowly as skiers gather and music begins to echo across the peaks. By late morning, the Hörnli stage comes alive, set directly in the ski area. You move naturally between runs and rhythm, between carving lines and stopping for a drink while a DJ plays above the snow.

As the afternoon unfolds, the atmosphere shifts. Down at the Sit Hütte, the mood becomes more social, more playful. This is where groups meet, where games, shared moments and après-ski energy take over. It’s less about rushing and more about staying, letting the day stretch out just a little longer.

Then night falls, and everything moves indoors.

The Ice Hall becomes the centre of it all. This is where the full Elrow experience takes over: visuals, performers, and a crowd that carries the energy deep into the night. From early evening until 4:00 AM, the festival reaches its peak.

And then, just a few hours later, it all begins again.

Tickets & Festival Access

Snowrow keeps things simple: you choose how deep you want to go.

Full weekend passes give you access to the entire journey — from the first set on the mountain to the last track in the Ice Hall. Day tickets offer flexibility, while upgraded options open the door to a more premium experience.

Tickets are available on the official website.

Prices typically start from around CHF 80 for a day and CHF 180 for the full weekend, depending on availability and release phase. As with most festivals of this scale, early booking makes a real difference.

Stay Where It All Connects: Altein Arosa

Where you stay defines how you experience Snowrow.

At Altein Arosa, everything is within easy reach. The ski lifts are just a short walk away, placing you directly into the Arosa-Lenzerheide ski area with its 225 kilometres of slopes.

That means no planning, no long transfers, just stepping out and into the day.

After hours on the mountain and long nights at the festival, the return matters just as much. Back at the hotel, the atmosphere shifts again. The pace slows. The warmth takes over.

The wellness area, spanning 950 m², offers space to reset with indoor pool, sauna, steam bath, we have everything you need before doing it all again the next day.

Dinner, drinks, a moment to pause, and then back out, or not. That choice is part of the experience.

Arosa in Winter

There’s a reason Snowrow chose Arosa.

At 1,800 metres altitude, the conditions are reliable, the setting is compact, and everything feels connected. The village, the slopes and the venues all sit within easy reach, creating a rare kind of festival where nothing feels far away.

Arriving is just as simple, a scenic train ride through the Alps, followed by a short walk to the hotel.
