What’s on in Courchevel for winter 2018/19

Courchevel

One of the highlights of the Courchevel calendar is the International Pyrotechnic Festival from February 14th – March 7th. If you are in resort around this time, do try and make sure you get to see one of the displays. Some of the most talented firework teams from around the world put on fantastic shows in time to themed music.
