The Christmas and New Year period is always packed with top flight football action and this year in no exception, and there’s no reason to miss a single minute of the action when you are here in Alpe d’Huez.

Down in the old town O’Bar always has the big games on in the upstairs bar. Meanwhile in the main street both O’Sharkeys and Sphere Bar are always popular, meanwhile over in the Les Bergers the action is always shown in the French run Tiger Bar, whilst in the middle of town Smithys Tavern shows all the action on its 2 huge HD televisions.

The big games include Manchester City taking on both Arsenal and Liverpool, whilst Liverpool also have the no small matter of a local derby against bitter rivals Everton to contend with as well.
