NEW YEARS SKI HOLIDAYS
New Year Ski Holiday Suggestions
New Year in the Alps is definitely something to remember. Festivities in resorts typically begin at the start of December when the Christmas lights are turned on and continue until the beginning of January.
For those wanting après ski and nightlife, then resorts certainly pull out all the stops for New Years Eve. Most places will host themed nights and many resorts will have a fireworks display at midnight to ring the New Year in.
New Year is a peak week of the season so it is generally the second most expensive week of the season after Half Term. For families restricted to school holidays and wanting to keep hold of the budget, then you will be able to find cheaper prices during Christmas and Easter weeks. Having said that, there are still good deals to be had for New Year with group discounts available and deals on lift passes and ski hire.
Recommended resorts for New Year:
St Anton is eco-conscious so don’t have a fireworks display but instead host an exciting family friendly laser and sound show at 8pm and then a later one for the adults. The show is free but encourages guests to donate money instead of investing in fireworks which are full of chemicals and scare away animals. On top of the fireworks displays, St Anton’s many bars will host big parties from the afternoon into the evening.
Meribel hosts excellent New Year festivities with its classic torch-lit descent and fireworks display. Spectators can enjoy a complimentary mulled wine or hot chocolate as you enjoy the show. Continue the evening in one of Meribel’s many bars which put on special festive entertainment.
Val d’Isere is arguably the best place to spend New Year in the Alps. The majority of bars host special nights and there is of course the fantastic fireworks display at midnight.
Understandably, New Year is a busy time of year to go skiing. If you're planning a holiday for a large group of people - perhaps with one or two specific resorts in mind - options can become limited very quickly. We advise early research and booking, as properties sell out fast - especially catered chalets.
