New Year's Eve in Avoriaz 2026/2027: DJ Parties, Clubs and Fireworks

Welcome to New Year's Eve in Avoriaz 2026/2027: Parties, Clubs and DJ Stages

On New Year's Eve 2026/2027, the car free ski resort of Avoriaz in the French Portes du Soleil sees in the new year with three free outdoor stages, DJ sets and a midnight fireworks display. This guide focuses on the parties, club nights and DJ performances of the night itself rather than the general winter sports programme. All details come from the resort's official event calendar; individual bar and club programmes are usually announced only shortly before the date.

Highlights and Attractions: New Year's Eve Parties in Avoriaz

• Three free festive stages in the heart of the resort, each with its own DJ
• Centre Station Stage with DJ Jarow (electro and house with melodic touches), announced as an up and coming DJ from the Lyon area
• Snow Square Stage with DJ Sachoutte for techno and house fans
• Dromonts Square Stage with the DJ duo Macadam and DJ Nix The Jockey (music for a mixed crowd)
• Fireworks at midnight in the centre of the resort

Program and Schedule: Where and When to Party on New Year's Eve in Avoriaz

The day starts at 6 pm with the torchlight descent at Place Jean Vuarnet near the cable car arrival station, followed by a demonstration from the ski instructors. From 9:30 pm the three DJ stages open and run until around 1 am. At midnight the fireworks light up the centre of the resort. To choose a stage by style: head to Snow Square for techno and house, to Centre Station for electro and melodic house, and to Dromonts Square for a more general mix.

For the hours after the stage programme, the resort lists Le Yak, the only nightclub in Avoriaz (39 Place du Snow, guests must be 18 or older, listed as open from 10 pm to 4 am during the winter season). Whether and how Le Yak will celebrate on 31 December 2026 has not yet been published. At the previous edition there was also a New Year party at Le Roc (45 Place des Dromonts) with three DJs from 11 pm to 5 am and free entry; it is not yet confirmed whether it will return in 2026. Venues such as The Place Bar (live bands and DJ sets), Le Chapka (open daily from noon to 2 am), Le Shooters Bar and La Folie Douce (afternoon après ski) are part of the usual nightlife, but no official New Year's Eve programme for them has been released so far.
