Tignes télémark festival celebrating the end of the season

featured in Events calendar Updated

The end of season is nigh and therefore it's time for the Black Shoes event, two days of télémarking and high jinks.

Come and celebrate the end of the winter with hundreds of télémark skier enthusiasts on the Tignes ski slopes. 

Prepare to see the free-heelers taking over the slopes this weekend, some of them in traditional costume!

For 2025 the Black Shoes event will honour the children of the télémark sports club with a Smurf theme. 

Did you know…the creator of the Smurfs is in fact Belgian.

There will also be events and entertainments throughout the week, enquire at the tourist office for more details.
