Booking La Folie Douce Méribel-Courchevel — what to know

La Folie Douce Méribel-Courchevel is booked by the daybed and the table — on peak Courchevel days the front row goes to those who reserved first and spend accordingly. Open daily in the ski season, 9:00 to about 17:00 (12 December 2026 to 3 April 2027). Minimum spends around €300 apply to the best positions. Daytime dress is ski.

How we book it

Send your date, party size and an indicative budget on WhatsApp and we confirm directly with the venue — typically within the hour during the season. Nothing is committed until you approve; if your first choice is full we come back with the closest genuine alternative in Courchevel, never a downgrade dressed up.

Getting there & timing

Courchevel's altiport puts turboprops and helicopters on the mountain itself; otherwise transfer from Geneva, Lyon or Chambéry. Book peak ski weeks months out. VIP transport — jets, helicopters and chauffeured cars — can be arranged around the booking for guests arriving from overseas.

About La Folie Douce Méribel-Courchevel

La Folie Douce Méribel-Courchevel throws the Alps' most famous on-piste party — cabaret singers and DJs on the open-air stage from lunch until the last lift. Ski down to it, dance in boots, and book the restaurant terraces (Fruitière side for the table service) on peak weeks.

Booking, the OF.luxury way

One message covers it: date, party size and any preferences. We confirm availability and the night's terms directly with the venue, hold the table in your name, and stay reachable until you are seated. Every booking is subject to the venue's availability and confirmed case by case.

Finding La Folie Douce at the Saulire mid-station

Despite its name, La Folie Douce Méribel-Courchevel is on the Méribel side of the ridge. It sits at 2,100 metres at the intermediate station of the Saulire Express gondola, above Méribel Centre. From Méribel, ride Saulire Express 1. From Courchevel, ski over the Saulire into the Méribel valley, which needs a Three Valleys pass rather than a Courchevel-only pass. Pedestrians can reach it by gondola, so non-skiers can join the party.

The 2026-27 season is listed from 12 December 2026 to 3 April 2027, about two weeks shorter than Courchevel's own listings. It opens at 9am daily. It closes at 4.45pm from Monday to Wednesday and at 5pm from Thursday to Sunday.

The show and the restaurants

The current show, Rock the Top, revisits cabaret in a baroque style with a contemporary edge. It runs in two sittings, at 12.30pm and 2.30pm, and the afternoon then turns to clubbing until close. La Fruitière is the seated restaurant, serving local produce with the show in view. A self-service counter and a children's restaurant cover quicker meals, and there is a bar, a barber and a shop on site.

Who it suits

Families can come for a morning stop or the first sitting, and baby chairs and a games room are provided. Adults who want the full afternoon should book La Fruitière for the 12.30pm show and stay on. Anyone skiing back to Courchevel should leave time to cross the ridge before the Saulire lifts close.

For a lunch on the Courchevel side, see Bagatelle at the Sommet de la Loze. Drivers and chalets are on our Courchevel concierge page, and the Geneva to Courchevel helicopter shortens the arrival.
