THE KISS100 SLOPES.
Following the success of The Beach and The Ice Disco, this winter The O2 invites you to hit ‘The Slopes’, London’s first ever indoor artificial twin ski slope. Running from 30th November to 25th January 09, visitors will be able to ski, snowboard or snow tube at The O2, making it THE London winter attraction.
The twin slopes, both 45 metres in length will bring the whole skiing experience even closer to the people of London. Not only will visitors be able to learn to ski or snowboard but The Slopes will be open to experienced skiers to warm up their ski/snowboard legs before heading to the mountains.
Aside from skiing and snowboarding, the more adventurous mountain person will be able to try out the snow tubes. These inflatable sledges are perfect for everyone whether you like spinning, sliding or just sledging.
The Warren Smith Ski Academy, the leading British snow sport coaching school, will offer top level coaching in the form of private lessons for all levels at The Slopes. Ski and Snowboard manufacturers, K2 and Ride, will be supplying top of the range skis and snowboards. Visitors to The Slopes will need to make sure they are wearing appropriate clothing, i.e. long sleeves and trousers, for their session.
Niccy Hallifax, Head of Special Events at The O2, said: ‘The Slopes is a fun and safe way for both experienced skiers and snowboarders to gear themselves up for the real thing or as an introduction for complete beginners. The Slopes are designed for all abilities and the snow tubes are ideal for both small and big kids alike!’
With the whole of the London Piazza themed like a winter resort, The Slopes, along with real snow covered trees and chalet will help create the perfect day out this winter.

A trip to The Slopes could also be combined with a visit to one of The O2’s 26 bars and restaurants, a show in The O2 arena or indigO2, or to see a film at the 11 screen Vue cinema.
