It’s almost time for the Telegraph Ski & Snowboard Show 2015, which descends on London – at Battersea Park, to be exact – from 5th-8th November November.

As well as the usual opportunities to book holidays, peruse the latest snowboard gear and listen to informative talks, there’s also plenty of entertainment including wine tasting, alpine-themed street food, the Altitude Festival comedy tent and music from Hot Chip. Add in Mount Battersea – a 50-foot real snow slope – and there’s plenty to keep you busy over the course of four days.

Prior to its appearance in the capital, the show will be stopping into Manchester’s EventCity between the 30th October and 1st November.
