2024 Event Cancelled due to Extreme Weather Forecasts

Due to all the different forecasts all showing extreme weather for the weekend, the Meridian Twizel Hard Labour Weekend committee have made the very hard decision to cancel the 2024 event. This is obviously not an easy decision and know all our entrants are hard people who can handle a bit of bad weather but still our number one priority is the safety of our participants and volunteers and we were not prepared to put them in obvious danger. We also wanted to give as much notice as possible so plans may be able to be altered as well as save some of the huge costs associated with running the event.

In the next days we will roll over any entries to the 2025 event. We will also give the option of cancelling your entry and either refunding your entry fee or we would love to gift your entry fee towards Sport Twizel to help fund the local sports teams for the next year as this is the biggest fundraiser in the year to support many teams.

Some generously donated spot prizes will be auctioned on Trademe in the near future to raise funds for Sport Twizel. Watch this space for more info.

Please continue to support our generous sponsors – enjoy a beverage or feed at MoW bar, grab some salmon from Mt Cook Alpine Salmon, stay at one of the many accommodation sponsors or when the weather clears take an epic helicopter trip around the biggest mountains in NZ and see this stunning region from another angle.

We really appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you next year.

We will be in contact shortly with more info otherwise email:
