Top of the Mountain Opening Concert

Teenage singing sensation Gabriella Cilmi is to launch the 08-09 winter sports season at Ischgl - in a concert that will also feature a guest appearance by Leona Lewis.

It's a double coup by the Austrian resort, which has a tradition of opening and closing its winters with gigs by huge stars.

Entrance to the concert, which kicks off at 6pm, will be by valid lift-pass. A oneday lift ticket for 29 November will be 55euros (covering skiing and the concert). A two-day lift ticket will cost 74.50 euros.

Skiing opens at Ischgl, one of Austria's highest and most snowsure resorts, on Friday 28 November. The season runs until the beginning of May 2009.
