The 2024 Line-Up is a big one...

Altitude Comedy Festival is the ultimate winter vacation destination for comedy connoisseurs and mountain lovers. 


Founded in 2007 by comedians Andrew Maxwell and Marcus Brigstocke, Altitude is the world's no.1 alpine comedy festival. Set in the picturesque town of Mayrhofen, Austria, one of Europe’s most beautiful ski resorts, we offer a truly unique experience that combines the thrill of skiing and snowboarding with the funniest comedy acts from around the world.


Not only will you be able to enjoy the winter sports and comedy, but also the beautiful scenery of Mayrhofen and the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the people in Austria.

At Altitude, you can spend your days shredding the slopes or participating in other activities like paragliding, hiking, snowshoeing, cycling, tobogganing, or even ice-climbing. If you're more of an indoor type, try one of the hundreds of wellness centers in town, from Turkish baths to rooftop swimming pools and saunas. You can also go schnapps tasting, and in the evenings, you'll be treated to a lineup of top-notch comedians that will have you laughing until your sides hurt. 


With a host of awards, including 'BEST OVERSEAS FESTIVAL 2022/23' and 'COMEDY FESTIVAL OF THE YEAR',

Altitude is an event you won't want to miss. 


Join us for the best week of your life - every year!

What the press have said about the festival...


"We had such a great time at Altitude Festival, I'm counting the days until the next one!" 

The Times


“There can be few nicer places to watch comedy than at the Altitude festival”

Daily Telegraph


“Even if you're useless at it [Skiing or Snowboarding], it's still worth it for the après and brilliant comedy”

The Guardian


"The countless times we uttered the words 'It can't get better than this' became a running theme of the festival"

The Independent


"It is not often you get to see an O2 Arena-filling act in a 100-capacity bar, so this was the kind of thing that made the festival special" 

Evening Standard


“SKIING, comedy, music. Not a bad combination, in anyone's book. Hence, the fun had at Altitude Festival this year was - by my maths - at least three times better than any mountain break previously taken”

The Sun


“Altitude Festival keeps the laughter levels flowing long after you dust off your bruised and aching limbs for some well-deserved après-ski and a glass of mulled wine”

Metro


"Altitude had a relaxed feel that many of the major international comedy festivals lack.

Stand-up comedy and wintersports is obviously a match made in heaven"

Daily Mail


“Altitude festival is well, well WORTH A LOOK. We recommend it highly”

Maxim


“We’d happily put up with the combination of aching legs and split sides again next year”

Whitelines


“The one thing to expect from Altitude is the unexpected - an utterly surreal experience”
