A WINTER WF!

RokStories

From 2013, the Worldwide Festival team look forward to welcoming you on the slopes of Leysin in Switzerland for a brand new winter edition of the WF! But you can already have a taste of this new WF experience on the 1st of March 2012. We invite you to join us for a WF Sessions with Gilles Peterson, Dimlite, Garfld and Simbad for the opening of the Nescafé Champs, the oldest freestyle snowboard competition in Europe .

You are used to dancing in the sand, well... get ready to dance in the snow. And if you miss the beach, simply cross the border and take a look at the "Mer de Glace". For those who are sensitive to the cold, Gilles and the WF gang will make sure to raise the temperature a few degrees for this first Helvetic rendez-vous.

Get your tickets here for the WF Sessions on March 1st.
