Fresh from the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympic season, some of the biggest names in British snowsports are heading to the UK slopes for the first ever Whiteout Podcast Live in association with Crystal Ski Holidays.
Taking place across two evenings at The Snow Centre in Hemel Hempstead and Manchester, the events bring together elite athletes and the UK snowsports community for a rare opportunity to meet, ski or snowboard alongside them, and hear their stories live.
Among those appearing is Dave Ryding, Britain’s most successful alpine skier and World Cup slalom winner, alongside Menna Fitzpatrick, Paralympic champion and one of the most decorated athletes in British winter sports history. They are joined by rising talents and established names including Huw Nightingale, Ollie Davies, Tom Greenway and former Olympian and BBC presenter Graham Bell and TNT Sports Broadcaster Ed Drake.
Each event combines access and insight. Guests can meet the athletes, watch or take part in an exclusive live recording of The Whiteout Podcast, and for a limited number, join them out on the snow for small-group ski or snowboard sessions.
The podcast sessions, hosted by Dom Killinger and Rob Stewart, will focus on life on the World Cup circuit, the Olympic season just gone, and what it takes to compete at the highest level in snowsports.
Snow Camp will also be there to talk about the great work they do to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds get into snowsports.
