After 22 snow events and nearly two decades, the wild and unconventional Swatch Nines event series is set to make its debut in Asia during the spring of 2026.
The invite-only event will include top skiers and snowboarder from around the world, all with the aim of pushing the limits in action sports in a playground build specifically for progression. The event will run from April 6th-11th, with a public day on Saturday, April 11th, at the Niseko Tokyu Grand HIRAFU in Hokkaido, Japan.
Niseko Tokyu Grand HIRAFU is one of Japan’s many powder meccas. with legendary snow dumps filling the mountain slopes every year. This spring, the incredible event will be taking advantage of the unbelievable amount of snow that falls on the slopes each winter.
Last year, and several years before that, Swatch Nines Snow was hosted at Schilthorn in Switzerland. Other events throughout the year now include Swatch Nines Surf and Swatch Nines Bike.
