From the beginning Pro-Tramp Australia approached the Australian market with innovative and creative projects that were requiring skill and different equipments.
In July 2003 Pro-Tramp Australia produced its first major event in Perth.
A 30 meter snow slide was erected for fourteen days in Forrest Place. Fully organized by Pro-Tramp and contracted by the City Of Perth, the event “Snowfields in the City”€ť was been accredited as The best school holiday event ever in the City€ť.
Thanks to its huge success, the same event was re proposed in 2004, with the addition of a snowballing area. More than 30,000 children (plus their parents) came into the City for this 2 week event. Once again due its overwhelming success and the creative management of Pro-Tramp Australia, the company was again engaged in 2008 to conduct a similar event. It was again recognized by both the public and the City of Perth.
In October 2003 Pro-Tramp Australia produced a similar event at The Perth Royal Show and in November 2003 Pro-Tramp Australia was contracted by Garry VanEgmond enterprise for a major Snow Event in Sydney and funded $360.000. The event saw the Pro-Tramp technical team mass produced snow; trained and supervised over 40 staff per day. The event was called Santa’s Kingdom and took place for a period of 30 days and attracted more than 160,000 people.
Santa’s Kingdom was proposed in 2004 in Melbourne and in 2005 again in Sydney; and across the 3 years the events attracted more than 350,000 people. Pro-Tramp Australia was proudly recognized as the leading company in the delivery of Snow themed events.
In 2005 Pro-Tramp Australia was selected to be one of the major partners in the promotion of the Winter Olympic Games and was contracted to create 2 giant snow slides in the central Federation Square (Melbourne) and in Auckland (NZ).
2007 saw the start of Pro-Tramp Australia collaboration with the Australia’s foremost outdoor museum; The Sovereign Hill. The pluri national awarded and Victorian major attraction contracted Pro-Tramp to create a winter environment that would merge into the historical village.
For 3 years in a row Pro-Tramp created a snow slide, snow pits, decorative snow on the main road and collaborated in the creation of the Ice sculpture exhibition “Frozen in time”. In 2011 Pro-Tramp Australia was chosen as supplier for the first and only INDOOR SNOWBOARDING PARK ever opened in Australia. The initiative lasted for 3 months. Once again the experience, professionalism and the commitment of the Company widely appreciated and recognized.Whatch the video!
In 2012 Pro-Tramp Australia received a certificate of appreciation in recognition of its collaboration with the Edith Cowan University and also embarked in what is now a long standing initiative with the international group Colliers International; creating a winter wonderland effect in Perthâ€s London Court. Once again the event has been well received and has been taking place each subsequent year.
Recently Pro-Tramp ran a major real snow event in Mount Newman within challenging weather conditions of over 40 degrees. Over 1,800 people attended to this event as part of the BHP Christmas Family Day.
2015/16/17 Pro-Tramp Australia snow events came back in the Coty of Perth CBD with the popular sniw slide and in 2018 and 2019 with the snow falling in Hay Street as a part of the Winter Festival. At the same time the first snow pit in Western Australia was created in Fremantle as additional event to WinterWorld.
