The popular Austrian ski resort of Ischgl has announced that Eros Ramazzotti will perform at the 25th edition of the Top of the Mountain Closing Concert. This yearly event draws huge crowds of skiers and snowboarders to the Silvretta Arena, where international artists traditionally close out the ski season every April.
This year, the Top of the Mountain Closing Concert in Ischgl will take place on May 2, 2020 and will feature the Italian superstar Eros Ramazzotti, known for his hits including Se Bastasse una Canzone, Cose Della Vita and Adesso Tu. Ramazzotti will also sing some numbers from his new album, "Vita ce n'è". The concert starts on the Idalp at 1pm against a spectacular mountain backdrop in the Silvretta Arena!
With 16 studio albums, some 150-odd platinum awards and more than 50 million albums sold, Eros Ramazzotti is one of the most successful pop stars ever to emerge from Italy. He has done duets with Tina Turner, Joe Cocker, Anastacia, Ricky Martin and Helene Fischer - all of whom have also performed at Ischgl's Top of the Mountain concerts.
The Top of the Mountain Closing Concert will take place on the Idalp, in the ski area of Ischgl - Samnaun - Silvretta Arena. From Ischgl, you can take the Silvrettabahn and the Pardatschgratbahn to the Idalp, where you'll see a huge podium set up at 2300m above sea level. Here, thousands of skiers and snowboarders will gather to enjoy the concert together in the open air. Admission is free with a valid ski pass, but ski passes will have a special price that week: 1 day voor €115, 2 days for €139 or 3 days for €159. The Silvretta Arena will remain open for skiing until May 3, 2020.
The Austrian ski resort of Ischgl is located in southwest Tyrol and, together with the Swiss ski resort of Samnaun, makes up the Silvretta Arena ski area with 239km of slopes. Thanks to the high altitude of the ski area, snow conditions here are particularly reliable. The village of Ischgl is relatively large for a ski resort, and has a lively street scene with shops, restaurants and plenty of après-ski options. In the tunnel that leads from one side of the village to the other, you'll find photos of previous Top of the Mountain artists.
Born and raised in the ski paradise of Vancouver, Canada, I learned to ski before I can remember, balancing precariously on my parents’ skis as they sailed down the hill. I started snowboarding in my teens and am now delighted to be exploring everything Europe’s ski scene has to offer!
