Read reviews of the best Morzine events
It seems like only yesterday that we were talking about snow sports, dump alerts and all things winter. Now, the weather is turning and we’re quickly heading towards summer and one of the busiest months in the Portes du Soleil calendar. The eyes of the world will fall on Morzine and Les Gets throughout June as some of the most prestigious sporting events head our way. It’s most definitely a month “not to be missed”.
For the 8th year running, the madness and chaos of the Cavern 24-7 Film Festival descended on Morzine in March. Pirates, reprobates and fire-breathing snowboarders were spotted flying down the slopes in Avoriaz, swinging off bridges in Morzine Town Centre and causing a scene in a bar near you.
Magda is back with a round up of the best events this week in Morzine.. and you'd be crazy to miss Le Tour de France which arrives here on Saturday 23rd July in the penultimate stage before they finish in Paris.
Peak summer and August has it all, with events and activities to suit everyone.
The weather thankfully held off long enough for yesterday's European whip off competition in Les Gets to take place and spectators were treated to huge air and lots of style as competitors battled it out for the prize money.
Over the weekend, motorways across France were gridlocked with people travelling out of Paris on holiday, queues as long as 880km stretched across the country.
The second Shreddie Feature Jam took place on Wednesday 6th February in snowy conditions. Riders took to three modules in the Burton Stash in Avoriaz in a jam session format. All the tricks were filmed by Stew Monk from Reelfun Media and the video is now live.

We've technically only got one month to go until the lifts close and interseason descends on the Portes du Soleil. However before it does, we have an amazing month of fun and events ahead.
As the best freeriders in the world gather in Revelstoke this weekend for the first stop on the all-new Swatch Freeride World Tour by The North Face, we were fortunate to be able to have a sit down with a free skiing legend, holder of the world record for the highest cliff jump and super nice guy - Fred Syversen.
It’s a new year and the town and slopes are quieter, it’s one of the best times to visit.
The Burton Stash Gathering returns on Wednesday with an amateur snowboard competition that is open to both male and female riders. The competition features a jam format, with groups of riders heading off with one or two judges following them down. The judges then decide who goes through to the next round until the finals. Prizes include Burton, Analog and Red products.
Thanks to Stew Monk from Reelfun Media for this edit of the Shreddie Feature Jam and another great day in the Stash.
The Relentless Freeze Festival did exactly what it said on the tin and those not wearing their ski jackets could be found with teeth chattering, huddled around the vin chaud stand wrapping themselves in a fruity alcoholic blanket.
This weekend sees the 13th edition of the Pass'portes du Soleil mountain bike event, and thousands of people are descending on the area.
March has arrived and there's still plenty going on in and around resort to keep you entertained once you've come down off the mountain.
