Mayrhofen: bars and nightlife - Telegraph Bruck'n Stadl (brueckenstadl.at), near Ahorn cable-car bottom station is for big-time partying. With DJs, live music and dancing - the action starts mid-afternoon and goes on until 2am. Harakiri Bar (harakiri-bar.at) in the main street shows some sophistication, and is the place for a quieter drink, either early, pre-dinner or late. A pleasantly mixed crowd, for all age ranges and snacks served too. The new Speakeasy Arena (hotelstrass.com) in the Hotel Strass next to the Penkenbahn is one of the resort's top nightspots - an eclectic music mix is on offer, from pop chart hits and Austrian dance tunes to drum and bass and dub step, sometimes all in one night. Schlusselalm (schluesselalm.at) in Ahornstrasse in the resort offers soul, R&B, house and eighties remixes as staple. The residents here, DJ Jacky and DJ Jason Parker, have a loyal following. It has a proud boast - it stays open later than any other, and you can dance until dawn. Events The resort host a number of major events - and none bigger than Snowbombing, a week-long skiing, boarding and music extravaganza held in the spring, and now Europe's biggest snow and music festival. Fatboy Slim, Dizzee Rascal and Madness have graced its stages, and Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy await 2014's festival. Also massive now is the Altitude Comedy Festival, co-founded by Marcus Brigstocke and Andrew Maxwell, held in March in Mayrhofen after moving a couple of years ago from Meribel. Britain's top comics are booked for the event, with recent line-ups including Jimmy Carr, John Bishop, Eddie Izzard, Milton Jones and Tim Minchin.
