4. Turn New Years Eve into BLUE Years Eve!
If there’s one thing we’re always down for, it’s an après-ski party. What better way to ring in 2024 than a stay in the Village and a night you won’t forget? Celebrate the new year slope side by booking a table at the The Pottery for a special New Years Eve dinner menu (coming soon!), or join us at Jozo’s Original Après for live music and a midnight champagne toast. Grab tickets for the whole fam to experience A Night Under The Big Top at the Village Conference Centre, and then start 2024 off right with a delicious brunch buffet, also at the Village Conference Centre. Don’t forget to book your tickets and your stay in advance to secure the best room rates!
