Looking at a trip for New Year.
Any suggestions for where does the best party.
First that comes to mind is Tignes, any more to add to the short list.

Think it may be "who" you're with, not "where" you are. Anywhere will do as long as you're with the right crowd.
We run trips over new year, as do all TO's, and I have noticed that some people seem to always have a fun time where ever they are.
Mind you I have to teach a class at 9am on 1st Jan so not too much for me

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

At least its the last lesson of the week, and providing they've had as much fun as you they won't notice

Agreed with that Wayne.
Maybe the question should have been.
I like a good open air party, with a band or DJ playing and a big crowd.
Tignes has that, are there any more resorts that do this sort of entertainment, in an Austrian "snowbombing" style.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Dek, How old are you and what constitutes a best party? Our preference is a secluded refuge at 3,000m with a select bunch of friends, donkey stew and an early start the next morning.

I was in Zermatt last year which reputedly has a good New Year scene and a whopper of a fireworks display.
However, we were so knackered after a punishing day learning to snowboard, that we fell asleep at 8pm and didn't wake up until morning.
So unfortunately I can't actually tell you whether what I claim is true or not.

under a new name,
In the head - or the body = about 19 - with a body not young enough to keep up 
Party as described above, but preferably without the donkey`s (or is that another thread entirely)

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

My most recent NY was in Wengen. Fondue in Cafe Allmend, toboggan back down in the dark, street party for NY itself, followed by very cheesy, crowded and hot disco!

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

i think verbier or st anton are the places to go if you're looking for 19-year old type all night parties with loads of alcohol

It doesnt have to be all night party
Head of 19 year old without the body to carry it off as that is quite a bit older.
Just want to go somewhere that has something good organised, and not just stuff put on by workers that are less than happy being forced into providing entertainment.
I think the resorts that stand out seem to be the usual suspects.
That said, the better they are the less likely it is to get good place to stay - as I dont have the ability to plan too far in advance due to work it makes it a bit harder.
beanie1, I think me and Stu will make it back out to Tux for a season livener. 1 night in the Hoenhaus will finish me off........

You know it makes sense.

We were in Chamonix two years ago for New Years, and a good party it certainly was.
Midnight at the town square with lots of fireworks. Bar-hopping before was good, but after most places had extortinate cover charges so we called it a night around 1:00.
I'd recommend it.

We've been away for the last 4 new years- Kitzbuehel was good craic, and they have the fireworks on the 1st which is good, Bad Gastein was good too- we also fell asleep on one new years after long days and a bit too much apre- to be woken at 12.10am by the fireworks 
Ischgl is a serious party spot all season and was pretty cool for new years eve!

Cheers all
First thought is that a trip to the snow at New Year will be good wherever it is, so I do have a few ideas now.
Staying at home seems to have turned into not as much fun as it used to be.
