Austria. Somewhere like Bad Hofgastein. Good snow record, big linked ski area, shortish transfer, pretty village, nice hotels, big NYE celebrations with ridiculous quantities of fireworks.
On the downside - it's bl**dy cold (but you knew that, right?) and the slopes are often a bus ride and a cable car away. But that's the price you pay for pretty villages in the valley rather than concrete bunkers on the mountain

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

Or try a concrete bunker in France, Tignes will have skiing, the weather might stop you.

St Anton is awesome at New Year. Ischgl was ace. Saalbach too. Probably most places tbh, though it's hard to beat Austria for a party.

Tignes le Lac, has a pretty good party on new year's eve. And the skiing is probably the best in the world as well.

St Anton is just too busy at NY. Murren, pretty high, and take part in the Scaramanga race on New Year's Day. Traditionally skied after an all night party and still in evening dress and ball gowns. Ski in pairs with both skiers tied together!!
