Look to the skies and the Supertrail for one of Thredbo's finest traditions, the flare run and fireworks display. It lights up the village on Saturday nights and it's a sure fire way to kick start a night on the town. For over 25 years visitors to Thredbo have enjoyed the weekly fireworks and flare run display and in 2007, 1,269 skiers and snowboarders took part in a flare run to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Thredbo landslide, smashing the Australian record for the biggest flare run.
Adult Flare Run
A Thredbo favourite for over 30 years. Every Saturday night our team of expert skiers and snowboarders wind their way down the Supertrail with flaming flares. Watching this spectacular event is the perfect way to kick off a magical Saturday night in Thredbo with family and friends.

Kids Flare Run
Every Thursday for most of the season, as the sun sets, the kids are loaded onto the Easy Does It Chairlift (no adults, kids are accompanied by snow sport instructors) ready to descend the gentle slopes with their own twinkling, flashing LED flares.
