Winter Survival '26 Announcement

We would like to inform you that Winter Survival will not be taking place in 2026.

This incredible event has been running for many years and has reached a stage where it needs a full review, overhaul, and significant development to ensure its future success.

To achieve this, the Winter Survival Organising Committee has decided to take a year off to review and strengthen the event.

Our goal is to ensure that Winter Survival returns stronger, safer, and better supported than ever before.

We appreciate your understanding and continued enthusiasm for this much-loved event. Further updates for 2027 will be shared once plans for the next chapter of Winter Survival are in place.

Thank you for your ongoing support.

— The Winter Survival Organising Committee
