Dress Code

Dress to impress

‘Tis the ski-son!

We’ll kick off the night with the renowned #thisisfocus Awards, part of our initiative to recognise and celebrate members of the team who have demonstrated exceptional performance over the year to date. As always, we’ll be joined by a comedic host who will get those endorphins going and set the tone of the evening- stay tuned for the reveal! 

Bundle up for the ultimate mountaintop celebration! We’re not just marking milestones at Focus Group – we’re warming up the alpine lodge with the spirit that makes us who we are. Strap on your snow boots and get ready to heat up the dance floor, because Ski Club is about to open for business, and you won’t want to miss a single powder-perfect moment!
