Event: The Metro Ski and Snowboard Show at the London Olympia

It may still be summer, but chances are those who like to hit the slopes during the winter months are already planning their ski or snowboard holiday.

Many people may be looking to pick up a new pair of boots, board or jacket for their upcoming excursion and one event in London this October could be the perfect opportunity to do so.

Taking place on October 20th to 24th, the Metro Ski and Snowboard Show at the London Olympia will feature discount shopping outlets where attendees can pick up new gear at special prices, as well as a fashion show and brand arena highlighting all the latest technology for snow-based sports.

A special 50ft ramp will also be constructed inside the venue and play host to a range of competitions over the four days, while the Destination Quebec Husky Lodge promises to take visitors "on a journey from London to the mountains of Canada" using regional delicacies and native husky dogs.

And new for 2010 is the Mountain Theatre, where seasoned explorers and adventurers offer an insight into life in harsh conditions.

Among those speaking is Sir Ranulph Fiennes, who will be in attendance on Saturday October 22nd.

The show may be perfect for ski lovers enjoying a relaxing weekend at luxury London hotel the Milestone Hotel and those who have booked the Get More From Your Stay package will be able to return from a day at the Olympia and enjoy a romantic turndown, complete with a bottle of Veuve Clicquot.
