A lot of the continent don't really do Christmas..more New Year I was in Obertuern the week before for a couple of years and its very snow sure and easy to get to. They have a special week that includes the lift pass in the price of the hotel for the week before as well

We did xmas in ADH this year and i was VERY disappointed. I won't ski xmas again.
I found that there were no celebrations at all, it seemed just like any normal day.
This year we are staying home to eat quality street and drink too much cheap plonk before setting out for ski time over new year.
Skied: Arinsal, La Plagne, Alpe D'huez, Flaine, Les Arcs, Morzine, Les Gets

Totally agree with snapzz, France doesn't seem to do Christmassy stuff (or what we perceive it to be )never tried Austria at that time of year

If you want Christmassy then do Canada or US, they do it very well.

Ive had Xmas skiing in Val Thorens and Mayrhofen. The first trip to VT was when I learned to ski and Xmas kind of passed me by. The 2nd trip I have to say whilst the town was wonderfully decorated, skiing on Xmas day didnt feel at all christmassy and we all said we missed being at home, and agreed never to ski at that time of year again.
Plus the prices are generally ridiculously inflated, and going the week after new year will save you tons of money.
