The traditional resort, part of the huge Grand Massif ski region which has 265km of slopes, has its own local cheese producers, but says, for the cheese party, it’s going global.
“This year, we’re taking Savoyard cheese on a culinary journey around the world, with recipes that are as delicious as they are unexpected. At the Cheese Party, there’s no such thing as too much cheese. On the menu: seriously indulgent dishes, a lively atmosphere, a large bar and, of course, lots and lots of cheese!” a spokesperson for the village in the Haute-Savoie Mont-Blanc region commented.
The Cheese party is due to get started on Thursday 14th January and continue daily through to the following Sunday 17th January, 2027 at Place du Gros Tilleul in Samoëns.
