On the last weekend in January, almost 100 private jets are expected to descend on tiny Samedan Airport, in the Swiss Alps. They will be delivering some of the world’s wealthiest, most influential, and dazzlingly beautiful people to the ultimate high-net-worth hoedown.
Their destination is the frozen lake of Saint-Moritz, almost 6,000 feet above sea level, where they will be attending an event that delivers thrilling sport, a sensory odyssey of food, booze, and schmooze, and more fur than a big-cat sanctuary. Welcome to the Snow Polo World Cup.
