Hywel Davies was crowned the winner of Fernie Alpine Resort's Retro Weekend Dance Off.

The Fernie Alpine Resort danced the decades away during its Retro Weekend on Saturday, March 21.

The event invited skiers and snowboarders to get decked out in the most outrageous fashion choices the 80s had to offer and hit the Griz Bar dance floor.

A DJ was on hand to spin favourites from the 70s and 80s while contestants took part in a dance off with Hywel Davies being declared the winner.

FAR Events Coordinator Jeni Pearson said that the event had to be played by ear this year due to the rainy weather outside that cancelled the day’s scheduled beer garden.

Amid costume contests and dance-offs, the 4th Official Hot Tub Time Machine celebration party is scheduled to keep the party going late this evening.
