Resort nightlife
A successful mountain holiday means knowing how to take full advantage of your time, even when the skiing is over ! Whether you like dancing until dawn, romantic evenings for two, or fun family activities, the resorts have what it takes to keep you entertained all night long !
The little ones will have their fill of after-ski activities beginning the moment they take leave from the slopes, with the majority of the resorts proposing performances for children. A carefully planned cultural programme including plays and fairy tales can be enjoyed by kids of all ages, particularly in the resorts carrying the « Famille Plus » label. Perfect activities for kids (and their parents) after a day in the snow. Another option, a trip to the cinema is a pleasant way to unwind for all ages. In the resorts, cinemas present not only the latest blockbusters, but also mountain sports films and mountain and nature documentaries, which correspond perfectly with the surroundings ! Another great way to relax, comedy festivals are programmed in many of the massifs. From stand-up stars to rising talents, the comedians arrive en masse to offer an evening’s entertainment for all publics. Concerts are programmed to please every taste, from Djs in open air to classical music recitals.
Nightlife in the ski resorts can also revolve around the simple pleasures. A raclette or tartiflette enjoyed with family in a cozy restaurant makes for a lovely memory. Why not also offer yourself a romantic evening for two ? Many of the resort restaurants present the perfect backdrop for an intimate dinner. For an unforgettable experience, reserve a table at one of the twenty-one Michelin starred restaurants in the French mountains.
As night falls, the party begins ! Resort life is very festive, with nightclubs welcoming dancers from dusk til dawn. And for those who would sleep in their skis, the night is not always an obstacle : a torchlight descent, or night skiing under the light of the projectors or the full moon (accompanied by a monitor) are moments that must be experienced. Especially knowing that in the mountains, this type of activity always ends with a smile and a cup of hot spiced wine !
