Art & Exhibitions

The original village of Tignes lies under the Lac du Chevril which was created by the building of the dam. Check out the history of Tignes section for the full story and personal accounts or you can visit the resort's Heritage Centre to see and hear the emotional story of how the villagers were forced to abandon their homes to make way for the dam and then how in later years how the ski resort was built and developed. Exhibitions are also held throughout the year, details of which are posted in the Maison de Tignes.

There are also other exhibition and Art event going on sporadicly around town, keep an eye on our News section to find out the latest.

Cinema

Generally the screenings are at 6 and 9pm but during the winter when the weather is bad there is also a showing at 2.30pm.

Listings are shown on posters throughout the resort and on leaflets in all the tourist offices. The films vary between French and English, but they often have subtitles so everyone can follow them. The main cinema is in Val Claret next to the entrance to the Parking du Golf. There is also a cinema in Le Lac not far from the main roundabout.
