I come for Skiing not for boozing!
“What will après ski bars look like next season?” The heading is misleading as it makes it appear you have answers, where as you are just speculating based on Spain’s summer bars, There is no contribution from any après ski bar owners who could probably give a more accurate prediction for next winter , This would have made a better article than your guess work. from a bar manager in the alps, if I’m honest no one really knows, but with progress we have made so far in France and how the bars are operating now I would say that yes there will be restrictions , but you will still find après music / bands playing . Don’t write off this sector of your ski holiday if you enjoy après. .
Falls Creek remains open for some snow activities as lifts close due to covid-19
The resort will still run some cross country skiing, tobogganing, snowmobile tours and back country tours.
