Snow's Up


SNOW’S UP!

It is time to take out the toboggan, suss some skies, and wrap up in winter woollies in preparation for JUICE TV’s largest snow train adventure New Zealand (NZ) has ever seen.

JUICE TV and Nokia present The Snow Train 2 ‘Kune with Miller.
A train from Auckland and another from Wellington packed with 250 snow goers, music lovers, musicians, and Miller beer will meet at Ohakune for an epic weekend at the snow!

“As a kid, I remember riding the train from Greytown to Wellington with my mum. Without fail, I would have eaten my peanut butter sandwiches by the second tunnel. 20 years later I will be popping a beer, listening to live music and traveling with 100 other party-goers, how times have changed.”

JUICE TV’s brand Manager Adam Stevenson conducted a similar but smaller scale experience last year with the Overlander train. With Nokia and Miller onboard in 2009, the adventure has been taken to new heights, setting the scene for two cities to come together in sleek snow style!

“Nokia is committed to supporting Kiwi music and we are really excited to be partnering with JUICE TV on this awesome event. On board the Snow Train, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic handset will be acting as a mobile DJ’s desk, giving passengers the chance to listen to some great Kiwi tunes,” says Mike Blackwell, Campaign Manager, Nokia NZ.

It would not be a JUICE TV gig without Music. Along with the multitude of snow bunnies, will be some not so snow savvy but amazing music masters. JUICE TV has lined up top NZ acts: Phoenix Foundation, Autozamm, The Early Birds, King Kapisi, Motocade and Cornerstone Roots to provide entertainment on the trip down in addition to hard core sets on the nights away. Keeping the party pumping DJs Elvis of A and Prince vs Michael Jackson will be taking the decks till early hours of the morning.
