The Région is building the mountain of 2050

This tour aimed to strengthen the attractiveness of ski areas, promote local expertise, and support the mobilization of all territories in view of the 2030 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. 'This event illustrates a strong territorial ambition: to stand alongside those who bring life to our resorts and valleys, while preparing for the future since today we are building the mountain of 2050. With the president of the Région Renaud Muselier, we carry a sustainable vision around a living, ambitious, and inspiring mountain, while creating links between residents and visitors who sometimes come from the other side of the world,' indicates François de Canson, president of the CRT.

Thus, during the Tournée des Neiges, an event village is built at each stage. Chalets, inflatable tents, and a central stage welcomed the public, who came with friends or family as there were activities for all tastes. Some were tempted by virtual reality experiences of skiing, sledding, and snowboarding or workshops for children.

A photo booth allowed visitors to keep a long-lasting memory of their holidays!

At each stage, mascots wandered about while local specialties were also offered (tourtons, hot chocolate, and mulled wine delighted those with a sweet tooth). 'As for the show, the Tournée des neiges Ça c'est le Sud relies on highlights and unifying moments because celebrating is in our region's DNA,' welcomed François de Canson. Nearly 90 choristers from the Chœur du Sud offered a participatory performance at each date, followed by a set by the Toulon DJ Le Pedre.

A show of 300 drones also illuminated the night sky of Montgenèvre, Serre-Chevalier, and Auron.

After Orcières-Merlette, the Tournée Ça c'est le Sud will continue on its route to Montgenèvre (February 17), Pra Loup (February 21), Serre Chevalier (February 23), and Auron (February 25). Photos CRT
