Four Tables for One Night in Val d’Isère
On December 31, each restaurant within the palace creates its own symphony.
Generous Italian cuisine, precise Japanese flavors, alpine delicacies facing the peaks, or a Parisian brasserie set high in the mountains: four unique ambiences await to welcome the New Year.
Live music, culinary surprises, and that unmistakable atmosphere where every detail seems designed for midnight to arrive in both warmth and sparkle.
All that’s left is to choose your table.
Le Piaf
Swing and Champagne
Le Piaf rings in the New Year with music and light-hearted flair.
In this Parisian brasserie lost in the mountains, French classics meet jazzy rhythms carried by musicians who set the evening’s tempo. Briny oysters, the perfect steak frites, indulgent profiteroles, the menu celebrates simple, unapologetic pleasure.
The mood is joyful, slightly mischievous, punctuated with festive touches arriving right on cue.
At midnight, glasses are raised in a cheerful clamor as Paris toasts the mountains with swing, sparkle and effortless charm.
Palladio
The Italian Evening
The grand table is bathed in light. Palladio hums with the rhythm of a celebration where Transalpine cuisine converses with the notes of a live trio. From steaming antipasti to creamy risotto prepared to order, the atmosphere rises gently, carried by melodies that accompany each course.
The fire crackles, glasses are raised, and small surprises punctuate the evening, just enough to bring a smile without breaking the harmony. Here, the passage into the New Year is experienced with an extended family around a generous table where everyone finds their place.
Matsuhisa
Midnight in Japanese Lands
In the intimate and velvety setting of Matsuhisa, the New Year takes on zen and festive accents. Chopsticks lift precise bites of pearly sashimi, airy tempura and signature maki from the chef while live music flows in harmony with the pace of service. Each dish arrives like a whisper, each note like an echo.
The atmosphere feels conspiratorial. Between warm sake and iced green tea, conversations unfold, laughter bursts forth and unexpected moments punctuate the night. At midnight, a dreamlike Japan welcomes the New Year with grace and quiet elegance.
La Grande Ourse
New Year’s Eve Under the Stars
The mountains enter through the windows. At La Grande Ourse, the New Year is celebrated facing the peaks in the warmth of pale wood and immaculate table linens. Live music accompanies a menu that honors alpine ingredients with creamy raclette, aromatic game and honeyed desserts from the region.
The atmosphere builds gradually guided by musicians who know when to stay discreet and when to lift the room. Between courses, a surprise appears such as an impromptu toast or a thoughtful gesture that brings a smile. Here, midnight rings like a promise of a year beginning close to the sky.
