The event runs from noon to 8pm today and noon to 9pm on Thursday, October 1st.
Switzerland Tourism will help visitors choose the right ski resort, whilst Warren Smith and his Ski Academy team will be on hand answer on all ski-related questions, from confidence-building through to ski carving and ski techniques.
One lucky “Swiss Extravaganza†visitor will also have the chance to win a romantic five-star holiday for two in one of the most picturesque resorts in the Alps – Saas-Fee.
