We bring the past, present and future sounds of house music monthly to the most popular ski resorts in Europe, at the most popular of après-ski venues, the famous Dicks Tea Bars. It’s no coincidence that our event locations are world class:
Monthly Mondays we start our tour dates in the historic and chic Chamonix Mont Blanc. Home to Europe’s highest cable car, and three vast ski areas amongst the stunning Mont-Blanc chain, close to the French border with Switzerland.
Monthly Tuesdays we headed to the remote outpost of Val Thorens. At 8000 feet above sea level, it’s not only the highest resort in Europe but amongst some of the finest ski runs on the continent.
Monthly Thursdays took us North East across one mountain range to the internationally favoured centre of the world famous Three Valleys, the bustling and ever popular town of Meribel.
Monthly Fridays took us into the Eastern Alps towards the Italian border and to the social capital of the ski world, the incredible Val D’Isere. BeGood on Fridays at Dicks Tea Bar Val D’Isere… The ultimate après ski night out!
New Years Eve 31 Dec 2007
In addition to the main tour dates, BeGoodMusic celebrated New Years Eve in style at the inimitable Dicks Tea Bar in Val D’Isere. With almost every hotel room and chalet fully booked in resort, and Dicks Tea Bar being THE place to be, NYE was a night to remember!
Altitude Festival 2008
Leading UK comedian Marcus Brigstock headed up the first Altitude Festival - a two week Anglo-French alpine extravaganza of entertainment. Featuring some of the best names in comedy, international DJs including BeGood, Joey Negro and Norman Jay, live music, shows, the British ski Championships and slope-style acrobatics, this daring programme of events truly broke the mould and returns in 2009.
