Join us for our annual Gastronomic Festival at Valle Nevado from June 26 to 30. For four days Valle Nevado will present a variety of gastronomic events with top chefs that include cooking demonstrations and special dinners that celebrate fine dining and international cuisine.

Every day, an invited chef will focus on a specific culinary specialty and discuss the food style in-depth, followed with tastings. In the evening, chefs will host culinary galas in a variety of Valle Nevado's restaurants, accompanied by music from the cuisine's region, including Latin American, French, Spanish and Italian cuisine. One evening the resort will host a Thai dinner at the Bajo Zero restaurant on the mountain, giving diners a chance to ski back to their hotel under the stars. The final night, there will be flamenco dancing, a casino, and a closing party in the Pub Tres Puntas. Guests will also be able to savor fine wines from Chile with two afternoons of wine tastings in the Bar Puerta del Sol.



CHILE WINE FEST

Valle Nevado will host the annual Chile Wine Fest from August 21 to 27. This event brings together top Chilean wineries, both well-known and smaller boutique wineries you may have never heard of, for a series of wine tastings, special wine purchasing deals, evening activities, and more. Expert enologists will be on hand to provide guests with an in-depth background into the history of wine in Chile, varieties produced in the country, and of course, sampling the wine itself at wine tastings.

Every day, Valle Nevado's restaurants will spotlight a specific wine that will be available for purchase by the glass or bottle at a 40% discount. The resort will also offer guests special wine packs at a promotional price that they can enjoy while at the resort or take home with them.

Other exciting activities include:

Sunday evening Torchlight Parade and welcome drink at the Valle Lounge.
