We all head to the Alps for the fun & challenge of skiing, those breathtaking mountain views, and crisp fresh air. We also understand that for many, another important part of a ski holiday is the après ski scene. There’s something rather unique about enjoying a beer or an Aperol Spritz in your ski boots and bobble hat.
We’ve listed a few of our favourite bars below, but once in resort do also ask your Avoriaz chalet host which venue has the best atmosphere, after all, they’re likely to have visited a couple of them!
1. La Folie Douce
The infamous Folie Douce finally made it to Avoriaz in 2018 and has been delighting guests ever since. Stop by for weird and wonderful circus acts set to a soundtrack of club remixes and classic apres songs.
2. Le Yeti
Le Yeti is a popular apres-ski bar with live music, where people like to go and relax on the sun terrace. It may be hard to resist just one more drink before heading back to the chalet given it's so close.
3. Le Tavaillon bar
In the centre of Avoriaz, the Tavaillon is an English style pub, which attracts predominantly young British customers. You’ll enjoy a lively evening here with a wide selection of draft beers available, including Guinness. They often broadcast sporting events and also have a heated terrace.
4. The Place
A fun bar with live music which opens from 4pm until 2am, if you can make it that late!
5. Le Yak
This is the resort’s French club; it’s the only place that’s open after 2am if you fancy a late one. The drinks can be quite expensive, and it can get pretty busy, but it’s good fun.
6. Le Fantastique
A friendly team will be pleased to welcome you to this lively and atmospheric bar. Once a week they have themed nights hosted by local bands and DJs and often show sporting events. This place is known for its cocktail menu.
Ready to hit the Avoriaz bars?
We often associate après ski with a drink and dancing, but Avoriaz has loads more activities on offer for those who still have energy to burn after a day on the slopes or maybe you’re looking for a relaxing massage back at the chalet?
You will be spoilt for choice of things to do on and off the slopes...
