DJ Kommisar to warm us up. The event will officially kick off at around 9:30 and the films will play shortly after. This is the main event - the earlier you arrive, the better your spot will be to watch all the films! Once we have watched all the films the awards ceremony begins. This is where we’ll find out who has won the various awards donated by local and industry sponsors such as “Biggest Send” “Best Skier/Snowboarders” “Worst Acting” and the big one, “Best Film”. You’ll also have the chance to vote for your favourite to award ‘The People’s Choice’.

The Tignes Film Awards has been in fullswing this week with over 25 teams filming and editing their masterpieces as they battle work schedules, weather conditions and horrendous hangovers. As Filming Week draws to a close it’s time to start thinking about The Premiere Night in the Tignes Espace. Many of you don’t know what to expect, so we have brought you a quick guide to help make sure you don’t miss out on the sickest night of the season. 1. The Venue The Tignespace sports hall is being transformed into an awards venue worthy of the Oscars. There will be a full bar, a massive cinema screen, a monstrous sound system, DJ decks, a red carpet and a VIP area for the teams. 2.

There will be charity hot dogs on sale, brought to you by Brothers Of Tignes - all proceeds to them - and some tunes by

Once the awards are handed out and the winner have been announced it will be time to celebrate with the teams. We will be keeping it loose until the early hours of the morning! 3. Getting there Snowdrone transfers have teamed up with The Tignes Film Awards to offer €10 return transfers from Valbd’Isère and Les Brevieres!

Over 200 people make up the 25+ teams who have entered and the films they’ve made have been created right here in Tignes and Val. The event is all about you - the people who live and work here - and celebrating our awesome resort. Spend an evening laughing, crying and cheering as you watch our finest seasonaires and locals attempt to deliver show-stopping performances at our very own ‘Oscars Of The Piste’. See you on the red carpet!
