Val d'Isere Christmas holidays
Spending Christmas in Val d’Isere makes for an exciting and unforgettable ski holiday. With fresh snow and thousands of fairy lights scattered around the resort's chocolate box buildings, you’ll find yourself in the middle of a bona fide winter wonderland. The snow in Val d’Isere at Christmas is great thanks to its connection to snow-sure Tignes as part of the massive Espace Killy. An excellent choice for those looking for amazing Christmas skiing conditions.
If you’re looking for a special family Christmas ski holiday, Val won’t disappoint in making sure that all ages have an amazing time. The resort celebrates Christmas in style with something special for all ages. Previous Xmas in Val d'Isere have seen giant beautifully lit Christmas snow sculptures around the resort, plus shows, concerts, torchlit decents and lots of fireworks! Of course there’s the much anticipated appearance of Father Christmas on his sleigh, usually accompanied by not only Mrs Christmas but a collection of fairytale characters and elves. For a unique experience that grown ups and children won't forget, book a husky ride or go skating on the resort’s gorgeous natural ice rink.
And the best thing about Christmas - traditional Christmas dinner with all the trimmings is served in many chalets and hotels.

Everybody loves a white Christmas and that’s definitely what you get here! All the beautiful mountains and the chalets are covered in snow, they put Christmas lights on the trees and the skiing here at Christmas time is great. There’s normally some fresh snow so the snow its nice and soft everywhere and it’s a great place to come with your family as we have skiing from beginners to expert skiers on and off the piste, so I’d say that Val d’Isere is a brilliant place to come and spend your Christmas!
