DISCOVER THE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS OF LES ARCS
The Festival did not choose Les Arcs by chance. This winter sports resort offers a breathtaking panorama of the most beautiful peaks in Savoie and Mont Blanc.
The 'Paradiski' ski area (Les Arcs, La Plagne, Peisey-Vallandry) is one of the most beautiful in the world, offering 425 km of ski slopes, three slalom stadiums and three modern freestyle facilities (snowpark, boardercross, half-pipe...). Access to the slopes is guaranteed throughout the entire winter season opening period thanks to an advanced artificial snowmaking system.
Les Arcs is located at the gateway to the Vanoise National Park, which, together with the Gran Paradiso National Park, forms the largest protected natural area in Europe. The resort offers five exceptional base areas at different altitudes, with a capacity to accommodate up to 30,000 people.
Films at every altitude
Screenings are scheduled across the resort's seven cinemas.
Regular inter-resort shuttle buses allow all festival-goers to get around easily and attend all screenings, events, meetings and evening parties.
The journey between Bourg Saint Maurice and Les Arcs takes between 20 minutes (Arc 1600 and 1800) and 40 minutes (Arc 1950 and 2000) by car, or just 10 minutes by funicular (Arc 1600). The different areas of the resort can be reached in 15-20 minutes (Arc 1600/1800 to Arc 1950/2000).
