\"cocorico\"<\/a><\/p>\n

During my first ‘Fam’ trip to Val d’Isere with Ski In Luxury<\/a> back in April 2015 I was drawn in to the hottest new Apr\u00e8s ski joint in resort. The crowds of skiers and boarders, the fantastic live music and of course the obligatory pint meant I really couldn’t stay away. Upon my return to the UK I knew I had to make contact with the manager of THE<\/strong> latest place to be seen in Val d’Isere<\/a>….<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I recently had the opportunity to pick the brains of the man behind Cocorico<\/a>, Victor Jarland Strid. Here is what he had to say:<\/p>\n

SIL –<\/strong> For those not in the know, please can you tell me a little bit about Cocorico and how it all started?<\/p>\n

Victor –<\/strong> We got the idea about starting an Apr\u00e8s Ski about 7 years ago, when Doudoune Club<\/a> was on its second season. The idea became reality the season after and we opened up what was then called \u201dLe Chalet\u201d. It was a nice Apr\u00e8s spot back then as well, but we knew we had more to give and the dream was always to be able to open something unique and fun in Val d\u2019Isere. Before last season we finally got the chance to open Cocorico – Apr\u00e8s Ski.<\/p>\n

SIL –<\/strong> Where did the name Cocorico come from?<\/p>\n

Victor –<\/strong> Cocorico means \u201dcock a doodle doo\u201d in French, and is sometimes used to express pride. The name has a good ”ring” to it and is fun which is what we represent at our Apr\u00e8s sessions.<\/p>\n

SIL –<\/strong> How is Cocorico linked to nightclub Doudoune?<\/p>\n

Victor –<\/strong> Doudoune Club & Cocorico is the same company, managed and owned by the same people. Working night and day \ud83d\ude42
\nDoudoune is one of the biggest nightclubs in the alps, and a must if you love the nightlife.
\nCocorico is put on this earth for the mountain lovers, that still wants a good party (but be in bed early) and to be up for first lifts the next morning.<\/p>\n
