Events in Chamonix on 8 June 2021

There will be a number of parties and events happening this Halloween at some of the best venues in town and neighbouring villages.

This winter, enjoy a magnificent projection of 'sound and light' on the facades of St-Michel church and the Maison de la Montagne. 

Whilst no official fireworks or celebrations are planned you can still enjoy ringing in the new year in Chamonix 

Looking for a place to celebrate something special in Chamonix? Or just want to spend a fun evening in town? La Folie Douce is the place to go!

Night skiing at the Tourchet piste in Les Houches has a fun and friendly atmosphere, enhanced by some music and a bar serving hot chocolate and mulled wine.

The local Chamonix ice hockey team, the Pionniers, play in France's Ligue Magnus, the first division. See them battle against other national teams at Chamonix's ice rink.

Head to the Place Mont Blanc in the centre of Chamonix every Saturday for the main market in the valley.

Parc de Merlet is a great place to spot some local animals in their natural environment. A nature reserve, rather than a zoo, the park is perched on a large sunny plateau high above Les Houches with stunning views across to Mont Blanc.

Register your teams at the top of the Prarion gondola to join in a treasure hunt on skis or snowboards.

If you’re a fan of trail running then the Marathon du Mont Blanc is the ultimate challenge. The main event covers 42km and climbs over 2,000 metres, this high-altitude race is for the super-fit.

Every year Chamonix hosts the IFSC Climbing World Cup, and some of the best climbers in the world descend on the resort for three days of fantastic climbing action.

The Trail du Tour des Fiz consists of a variety of courses for all levels in the most stunning backdrop of the nature reserves of Passy and Sixt-Passy.

Every summer France is gripped by the biggest and best cycle race in Europe - Le Tour de France. 

The Cosmo Jazz Festival is an imaginitive mix of live music and different mountain locations. This entirely free festival is the fruit of the imagination of André Manoukian.
