APRES-SKI IN ALPE D'HUEZ
Alpe d'Huez has many après ski options available however the biggest draw is still the world-renowned après ski bar, the Folie Douce. With the après ski entertainment and dancing kicking off at 3pm every day at the Folie Douce at the top of the Marmottes 1 lift, there is time to party all afternoon until the time comes to take the Bergers (blue) or Olympique (red) runs back down to the resort. Table dancing is a must here and has effectively become a rite of passage for après skiers. But possibly the best thing about this venue is the live performers each day, with DJ’s, dancers, musicians and singers performing every day of the week in rain, sun or snow!
Back down in Alpe d'Huez there are plenty of après ski bars to keep you watered and entertained. We would always start with a drink in Bar l'Indiana, which shows live sport and has some excellent food options.
Moving the apres up a level, we recommend the Les Caves de l'Alpe bar, which has a good selection of beers, cocktails and shots. A few steps away is Smithy's Tavern, which is an English pub with live music, Tex-Mex food and decent burgers.
Most apres ski revellers would then head towards Underground Bar, which has a lively atmosphere and great live music on certain nights during the week.
Alpe d'Huez Nightlife
There Whilst there are plenty of bars to party in, there are only a couple of discothèques to dance the night away in Alpe d'Huez. Our pick would be L'Igloo - the doors open at midnight, and the nightclub has some of the best DJ's and themed nights in the Alps for everyone to enjoy.
