Well ive heard a few good things about Whistler's Nighlife and apres ski, and i basically want to know how good it actually is!! Is it on par with St Anton and Iscghl? And what sort of people go there?
Thanks for all input!

That's a difficult question to answer because I've never been to St Anton and Iscghl...
Whistler's a reasonable sized town though and contains lots of pubs and nightclubs. They have clubs for the youngsters and clubs for the oldsters.
The town is swamped with all sorts of people - families who obviously retire early and others who party all night (and some who use the local police cells to sleep it off overnight).

Whistler rocks.
Whatever apres you like Whislter has it, lively, quiet, cheap, elegant.
Go you wont be dissapointed.
The people - well Canadians IMO are cool, not to much in your face but really freindly and helpful, Whistler is an international resort with all nationalities, Brits, Americans, Aussies, Japanese...

Snowy, Yeah we were there 2 seasons back on Oz Day - on the way to the lifts first thing in the morning we passed a queue of Aussies about 100yds long waiting to get into the pub (Longhorn?). At the end of the day they were falling out of the marquee!! Funny sight.

St.A apres is probably better than Whistlers having experienced both, but they are both good but different, if that makes sense.
was in Whistler last year on Aussy day, queue to the Longhorn was really long as we walked through the village. Longhorn opened at 7am I believe. It seemed such a shame that most of em were missing some great skiing

You know it makes sense.

Whistler is THE party place, no matter who you are, i am sure you will find some nightlife to satisfy your desires. plus the skiing rocks, especially at the moment

Terrible. You didn't miss a thing. And ignore the snow reports - they're pure fiction. Those photos that hels_t posted are actually from last season.

Without meaning to offend any Whistler fans, and I love the skiing, have been there six times and am returning on the 12th Jan, Whistler nightlife is rather lame. I've had NY there and it was laughable, the centre of Whistler was alcohol free and you could only enter bars from the rear door.

flicksta, I don't think NY in Whistler is a great event because it's so controlled and they've really clamped down in recent years. You're probably better off finding a club for NY, if that's your thing, and staying there.
