Our Throwback to the 2025 Ski Opening
The 2025 Ski Opening in Schladming was far more than just the start of the winter season – it was a true spectacle!
With the Backstreet Boys as the musical highlight, the stadium was transformed into a vibrant party zone. From the moment guests arrived, the air was filled with excitement, anticipation and goosebumps.
❄️ Thousands of fans, sparkling lights and a spectacular stage show made the concert unforgettable. When classics such as “I Want It That Way” and “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” filled the stadium, the entire crowd sang and danced along – magical moments that will stay with us.
🎶 And the night was far from over: the party continued at the Hohenhaus Tenne and along the party mile with DJs, beats and the very best après-ski atmosphere.
A unique combination of live music, winter sports and party vibes – Schladming at its best!
