What’s on in the 3 Valleys March and April

If you’re coming out to the Three Valleys for some Spring skiing and want to find out what’s on whilst you’re staying in Courchevel or Meribel, then there’s plenty of end-of-season parties, Easter treats and ski events as there’s plenty going on right up until the lifts close.

What makes Spring skiing so good?

When you ski in March and April, you can expect sunny days, beautiful sunsets over the mountains, lazy lunches on the slopes and lots of end of season events and parties!

The lifts in the Three Valleys close either 12th April (La Tania and Courchevel Moriond) or 17th April (Courchevel, Meribel) so during March and at Easter there’s plenty of high altitude skiing to be had, plus it’s a great value time to travel.

How to watch:
On Wednesday and Thursday 11th and 12th March, the training will take place so you may get a chance to view your heros in action.

On race days, you can view the finish line in Le Praz, or watch near the top in La Tania. The Eclipse piste is of course closed to the public until the event is completed, but there should be spots to be able to view alongside the piste, or at a distance from the Bouc Blanc terrace! Also look out for the aerobatic display team as you’re skiing around Courchevel. The green arrows on the map below show how to ski into Le Praz during the event. The Praz bubble lift will be free for public use on Saturday and Sunday 14 and 15 March.

Ronnie Loves Music festival in Méribel 

The legendary terrace of The Ronnie (Le Rond Point) in Méribel will once again turn into one of the wildest après-ski stages in the Alps. Five days of live music, DJs, ski boots on tables and unforgettable mountain sunsets — it’s one of the most iconic music events in Méribel and a highlight of the winter season.

Ronnie Loves Music has seen headline DJs such as Jamz Supernova, Norman Jaye, DJ Yoda and Craig Charles play alongside some of Meribel’s best local bands and DJs, in an incredible piste-side location, for free!
