Story
Cancellation of 3 Valleys Charity Day 2020
After a new directive was issued on Monday by the government regarding CCOVID-19, prohibiting public gatherings over 1000 people and under advice from the local Mairie & Prefecture we have taken the decision to cancel this year”s 3 Valleys Charity Day event.
Given the unprecedented nature of the coronavirus situation please rest assured this has not been an easy decision for us to make. In addition delaying any cancellation decision could have a financial impact on our charity fund raising efforts.
Please be assured we will be #backstronger in Méribel bigger and better for 3 Valleys Charity Day 2021.
Thank you as always to our supporters, volunteers and sponsors. You can still donate via Just Giving here.

Our Story
The massive 3 Valleys Charity Day (formerly La Tania Charity Day) in aid of charities in the UK and France takes place in April every year. In 2018 we raised €50,000 - Thank you to everyone involved.
Starting in 2002 and inspired by season worker Dan Provost who had recently lost his mother to cancer there's historically been fancy dress, live bands, a BBQ, outside bar, raffles, auctions, silly games, Harley Davidson rides, the annual egg eating competition, the Charity Day T Shirt, Saisonnaires Poll Winners Party and The La Tania Charity Ball. We also had a float race down La Troika piste in La Tania and in the first year a Chinese Downhill!
The money raised has been split between the Sebastian's Action Trust (a respite home for terminally ill children and their families in Hampshire, England) and the Ligue Nationale Contre le Cancer (the French Cancer Research Charity).
Since 2012 the event has taken place in Méribel Village for a safer, more organised event with more room and security for everyone to have a great day - a separate cordoned off area with toilet facilities, security staff, marquee / beer tent, comedy, dance tent, a covered stage, professional PA, security staff and transport services to Méribel & La Tania / Courchevel provided.
2014 saw The Dub Pistols added to the local bands line up and the Pistoleros returned again in 2015 & 2016 along with Radio 1 & 2 DJ and Queen of the Live Lounge, Jo Whiley.
2015 & 2016 also saw a La Tania Family Charity Fête on Easter Monday which raises around €5,000 and a return to the original La Tania roots with BBQ, Kids Games, Easter Egg Hunt, Ski Race and a chilled out atmosphere involving the whole village.
2017 saw Gentleman's Dub Club, Jo Whiley, Bring Your Sisters, Mr Clean, The Killerbeez, DJs Les Deux Roux, Sian Hayley Smith , Maps, The Slopes and more..
2018 broke our record and along with the Family Fete in La Tania over €50,000 was raised with music from Jaguar Skills and The Dub Pistols headlining plus all our local favourite bands.
3 Valleys Charity Day 2019 is on Wednesday 10th April in Méribel Village. Join us for an amazing line up of live music featuring all your favourite local bands plus our joint Headliners Jaguar Skills and Bring Your Sisters in their one and only end of season gig in the Alps.
