This year, Saturday 15th December is a very significant date indeed. Not only will the Les Arcs lifts open, ferrying the first, fortunate passengers of its 50th year as a fantastic ski area, but it is also the 10th anniversary week of the annual Les Arcs Film Festival. Snow, movies and birthdays all round, it’s going to be a great time to celebrate!

It’s the most magical time of the year.

To help you have a wonderful, very merry Christmas and a happy New Year, here is all you need to know for the next couple of weeks.
