MORE than 40,000 people flocked to Springvale’s Snow Fest on Sunday 24 July – up 8000 on last year.
A council spokeswoman said the event attracted people from outside Greater Dandenong and repeat-attendees.
More than 80 tonnes of real snow made its way from Mt Bulla to Buckingham Avenue for the festival’s fourth incarnation.
There was also a snow-making machine, rides, live performances, fireworks and more.
