Après ski options vary according to the level of Courchevel you stay at, with by far the most happening at Courchevel 1850 where it's possible to play 'spot the celebrity' most nights (knowing the domestic French ones will be particularly useful for this!). A bus links all levels of the resort with additional gondolas to 1550 and Le Praz. The night-time emphasis tends to vary between 'sophisticated' or 'quiet' depending on where you are, rarely getting very lively except in individual establishments. Courchevel 1850, in the former category, has the only discothèque - Les Caves, as well as the La Grange nightclub open until dawn, although some of the bars such as Le Kalico stay open with dancing through to 4am. Popular places include La Saulire, also known as Jack's, L'Equipe, L'Accord and TJ's. There are cinemas and bridge clubs at both 1850 and 1650 with backgammon and billiards available in 1850. Classical music concerts and piano recitals are staged throughout the season. 1550 has limited après ski but the weekly evening descents on the 2km (1.3 mile) long toboggan run is usually worth attending, if only for the mulled wine afterwards. For unique après ski ideas you may consider options suggested by the resort's Animations service who will organise group entertainments including treasure hunts, snow games and themed 'Native American' or traditional Savoyard parties. Be wary of the local Mutzig beer - it's extremely potent!
