For the Snowplaza Awards 2020 we’ve branched out and are looking for the BEST in six different categories. If you voted in the Snowplaza Awards last year, you might notice that we’ve added some new awards. This year you’ll also be able to vote on the best après-ski bar, the best ski resort for beginners and the best ski resort for advanced skiers.

Like last year, this year we’re asking you to share your opinion on the best in each category. You can vote once per category.
