Courchevel is one of the most romantic ski resorts in the world. It is also a resort that holds much prestige among both winter sport lovers and avid bargain hunters looking for a winter holiday deal. Christmas in Courchevel Finding a good winter holiday deal feels great at any time of the season, but you’ll feel especially lucky when you do so around Christmas time. Christmas is much less commercial in France than it is in the UK, which makes it even more unique. You can be sure, however, that there will be carols, mulled wine and festive restaurant meals, should you wish to eat out on the big day. The festivities start at the beginning of the month of December when the lights are switched on. Music, hot chocolate and mulled wine mark the occasion. From then on, throughout the month, concerts, markets and live music in town pave the way to the main Christmas and New Year celebrations. If you want to experience Christmas in Courchevel with a difference, however, why not travel to resort on the 6th January 2016, when Courchevel turns Russian and celebrates Christmas just as it is celebrated in the country of the Tsars?
