🎉 WHAT’S ACTUALLY GOING DOWN
Snow-soaked days, wine-drenched nights, parties every day and night. That’s the brief.
We’ve taken over the top two floors of the most central building in Les Deux Alpes — right opposite the two best bars, five minutes from the gondola and Rise Festival. This isn’t your family ski holiday. It’s 60 legends, one building, big energy, zero chill.
EXPECT:
🎿 220km of pistes — Europe’s highest skiable glacier at 3,600m, and a crew to shred it with
🍻 Après that escalates quickly — Pano Bar at 2,600m, Skandal Bar, Umbrella Bar, then Rise Festival stages take over
🧀 Dinners that actually slap — chef-cooked French mountain food. No €30 reheated lasagne on our watch
🍷 Nightly swirl-sip-repeat sessions with Swallow Don’t Spit Wine
💃 Five nights of Rise Festival — world-class DJs, mountain stages, village mayhem, zero regrets

🚀 HOW TO SECURE YOUR SPOT
Hit the book now button, pay £1, and start planning your December.
15 spots already gone. Don’t be the one who missed it.
You want to ski. You want to party. You don’t want to organise dinner or stay in a shoebox. This is that trip — a building full of good people, food taken care of, wine flowing, and Rise Festival turning the whole mountain into one giant party.
A WEEK YOU’LL ACTUALLY REMEMBER (PROBABLY)
Picture this: you’ve been shredding Europe’s highest glacier, gone a bit too hard at après, and now you’re back in a cosy apartment where dinner is already in the oven and the wine is already open.
The crew’s buzzing, someone’s playing tunes, and the only thing you have to do is show up, sit down, and enjoy yourself before heading back out to dance all night.
This isn’t a hotel. This isn’t a dorm. It’s your crew, your mountain — and every night ends with full bellies, empty bottles, and stories you probably shouldn’t post.
“Arrived in the French Alps expecting snowboarding. Left with 30 new best friends, a second home in the après scene, and a life that briefly felt like a Love Island episode with better outfits and worse balance. Minimal sleep, maximum serotonin. 10/10.” — Priya, Ireland · Rise Festival 2025
“I joined for two trips — Rise Festival and Georgia — and both were unforgettable. They brought together such a fun international group that it was impossible not to make friends. Have already booked the next one.” — Davis, Latvia · Rise Festival 2025
With wine tastings, games, and a touch of education
Every night, our friends at Swallow Don’t Spit Wine take you through a fun and unpretentious exploration of French wines. Think blind tastings, region vs. region, food pairings, and cheeky wine trivia. Expect to drink a lot, learn a little, and maybe find out what makes Champagne… well, Champagne.
By the end of the week, you’ll know your Burgundy from your Bordeaux — and still be buzzing in time for charades or a 2AM club crawl. Probably both.
Stay in our Tower of Goodtimes, Les Deux Alpes
We’ve taken over the top two floors of La Résidence — right in the centre of the village, opposite the two best bars, five minutes from the gondola and the festival. Nine apartments across the 5th and 6th floors, with a mix of double and twin rooms, plus communal dining and pre-party spaces on both floors. Solo travellers go in twin-shares matched by age and vibe. Couples get doubles. Groups stay together.
Ski or board Les Deux Alpes — 220km of pure glory
Les Deux Alpes is big. 220km of runs, Europe’s highest skiable glacier at 3,600m, 55 lifts, and a 2,300m vertical drop. The split: 15% green, 50% blue, 20% red, 15% black — plus a snowpark and boardercross track. First time on skis or charging hard every day, there’s a run for you. 87% of our guests hire equipment in resort — no experience necessary.
And yes, of course — the après-ski & Rise Festival nightlife
Après kicks off at Pano Bar (2,600m of table-dancing chaos) around 2pm, then down to Skandal Bar for epic views, then Umbrella Bar at the bottom. Five-minute walk home for dinner. Then Rise Festival takes over — mountain stages, village stages, Penguin & Polar next door, Smithy’s Disco. Way too many reasons to stay up way too late. Every single night.
