Between line races, freestyle contests and a festive atmosphere, the Savoyard resort is transforming its slopes into a veritable playground. Three events, on 21, 25 and 29 March, promise a high-intensity end to the season.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Derby du Bouc Blanc kicks off on 21 March at La Tania. A challenging course, a line start and just one rule: go as fast as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the summit of the Eclipse, at an altitude of more than 2,200 metres, participants set off in waves along a signposted course, with technical sections and long, fast sections up to an altitude of 1,500 metres. Skiers, snowboarders and monoskiers all start with helmets on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>READ MORE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/new-gourmet-and-dance-addresses-coming-to-courchevel-this-winter-we-present-them-to-you\/\">New gourmet and dance addresses are coming to Courchevel this winter: here they are<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The atmosphere doesn't stop at the finish line. In the afternoon, the snow front comes alive, before a concert and prize-giving ceremony at the end of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same spirit will prevail on 29 March in Courchevel Moriond with the Derby du Roc Merlet, organised when the pistes are closed. It's a rawer event, where the descent is made in the fading light, under the watchful eye of the piste patrollers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freestyle, music and ride spirit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Between these two highlights, there's a change of scenery on 25 March with the \u00abPrends Ta Luge\u00bb competition, organised in conjunction with Family Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There's no time limit here. It's all about style, creativity and the snowpark atmosphere. At the end of the morning, riders and curious onlookers gather around a barbecue before giving way to the contest, open to all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Equipment tests, meetings with riders and a freestyle session set the pace for the day, before an after-party at 10.30pm to extend the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>READ MORE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/in-the-3-vallees-this-completely-crazy-experience-involves-dining-in-a-cable-car-at-an-altitude-of-2700-m\/\">In the 3 Vall\u00e9es, this completely crazy experience involves dining... in a cable car at an altitude of 2,700 m.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Through these three events,<a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/subject\/courchevel\/\"> Courchevel<\/a> is betting on a dynamic end to the season, where skiing can also be enjoyed off the slopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Races, shows, music... the village and the snow fronts become living spaces in their own right.
