Ski Carousel Vintage party, skiing and reviving times gone by. During the last days of the winter season, the state-of-the-art ski area of Alta Badia will be taking you back in time - by means of a popular event that was jointly launched by the local tourist board and the Skicarosello lift consortium.
Vintage, that is the motto of the Alta Badia Ski Carousel Vintage Party, which takes place during the last ski season weekend on the ski slopes, in the ski huts and in different spots in the valley.
Saturday is already all about vintage in some of the mountain huts.
In the evening, the centre of La Villa becomes a vintage village:
From 18:00 to midnight, the main street will be closed to traffic to make room for a unique vintage atmosphere. Together with the local businesses and associations, we invite you to an unforgettable evening. There will be live music everywhere!
On Sunday, the vintage party continues on the ski slopes:
Take part in the vintage ski race "Les gobes dl giat" and experience the nostalgic atmosphere on the snow! Show your best vintage performance and get the highest score. Great surprises await you. NO CARVING SKIS allowed!

The good old days: why revive them today?
It all makes sense if, in addition to the joy and fun, you also take some time to look in the mirror. Beautiful vintage clothes, funny and fashionable; great music, a delightful atmosphere amongst wool, lycra and old bindings. The future of skiing can’t left out its past.
Is it true that Italy’s first ski lift was built in Alta Badia?
Yes, it’s the Col Alt lift facility, which was built in 1946. That same year also marks the founding of the Ladinia Ski Club. When it comes to skiing pioneers, Alta Badia really holds its own.
The first chairlift was the Piz Sorega chairlift: how long did the ride take?
18 minutes and 30 seconds - which seems like forever compared to today’s approximately six minutes. However, it must be emphasised that, while the duration of the ride has considerably been reduced, the safety of the lift facilities has increased just as much, or even more.
Why is the race of the Ski Carousel Vintage party held in La Para?
La Para is the vintage location par excellence in Alta Badia: right here you can find one of the last remaining original ski lifts of the entire area.
Nature, culture, gastronomy and togetherness
Events in Alta Badia are all about hospitality.
