The Swatch Nines Are Coming To Niseko!

If you’re into action sports, you’ll know that there’s no event quite like the Swatch Nines. 

Standing up as pinnacle of skate, snow and surf showcases, the Swatch Nines aren’t just your standard X-Games, Winter Olympics style competition, they’re genuine feats of ingenuity, supplying the gnarliest riding and most extensive course terrain layouts ever seen. 

Seriously, if it wasn’t for footage from their previous events, you almost wouldn’t even believe that terrain parks like this exist – it’s beyond the realm of imagination. 

Which is why we are stoked to announce that for the first time ever in Asia, the world famous event will be descending upon Niseko Tokyu Grand Hirafu for two events in 2026, and 2028 respectively, bringing the world’s biggest action sports athletes into town for the internationally renowned showcase.



At this stage the event schedule, participants and other details are yet to be announced, but if their previous editions are anything to go off, we can guarantee it’ll be huge! 

Honestly, we may even have to stop claiming that the Rhythm Rail Jam is Niseko's biggest event after this one....
